In this video I answer the question, “What vegetables can I plant in March?” with my top 10 choices for vegetables to sow in march. Whether you sow these cool season and warm season vegetables indoors or outdoors depends on when your average last frost date is for your area. I’ll show you how to find your last frost date and how to use it to know when to plant your vegetables.

It’s March and this is a fun time in the garden well not today because it’s raining but normally if you’re in a milder winter climate it’s go time outside and if you’re not then it’s probably go time inside in this video I’m going to go through my top 10

Choices of vegetables to start in March I’ll show you when to start each of these depending on your last frost date so Google your ZIP code or area and last frost date and you’ll have the info you need to know exactly when to get these started comment down below and let me

Know where you’re from and what you’re most looking forward to Growing this year all right let’s jump into the list my first choice is tomatoes I consider Tomatoes The raining royalty of the summer garden there are literally hundreds of varieties they’re definitely the most popular crop grown at home and

For good reason there’s absolutely no comparison in taste between a store-bought tomato and a homegrown tomato by the way for all the choices in this video I have video growing guides and I’m going to link them all down below in the video description so you’ll

Have all the info you need to grow all of these choices successfully my second choice is sweet potatoes contrary to popular belief sweet potatoes and potatoes aren’t related sweet potatoes are related to the morning glory and potatoes are in the nightshade family sweet potato vines do spread and

Take up a lot of space but they can also be grown in large containers number three is Summer squash squashes and melons are fun crops to grow and super easy to grow unless you’re in an area frequented by squash bugs or Vine borers you know they can devastate an entire crop seemingly

Overnight Studies have shown that squash Vine borers and squash bugs prefer blue hubard squash over all others plant a trap crop of blue Hubbards a month earlier than your main crop to give them a head start they should be 10 to 15 ft away from the crop you’re trying to

Protect number four is beans there are two types of beans Bush and Runner and having two types means you can grow beans in your garden no matter what size or shape it might be you’ll need to grow runner beans on a trellis of some kind bush beans are very prolific though and

You won’t need a trellis for those you can even grow them in a container number five is lettuce if you’ve never gardened before lettuce is a great starter plant especially leaf lettuce it germinates and grows quickly and you can start harvesting in less than a month there

Are two main types of lettuce leaf lettuce and head lettuce head lettuce takes more space and takes more time to grow while leaf lettuce is quick growing and can be tucked in just about anywhere number six are potatoes potatoes are one of the most fun things to grow and you

Never know what you’re going to dig up at Harvest aside from the fun of growing them the flavor of homegrown potatoes fresh out of the earth is way different than you might think remember to check the links in the video this description because I have a video on how easy it is

To grow potatoes without ever digging to plant them or digging to harvest them number seven is charred both the stems and leaves of char chard can be eaten cooked or raw Swiss chard grows to a large size so leave plenty of room in the garden bed you probably only need

One or two plants Chard is extremely cold hearty down to 15° fhe or 9.4 C on the other hand it’s also heat tolerant much more so than lettuce so you can continue to harvest chard through the summer to use in salads number eight is onions onions have been in cultivation

For over 5,000 years I can’t think of many of my favorite recipes that don’t include I find growing my own and cooking with them to be so satisfying they’re delicious and add so much flavor to so many dishes they take up very little space when interplanted with other

Vegetables and they’re easy to grow when you follow a few basic rules now the last you are plant families or plant groups that can be grown really well when planted right now nine is root veggies like carrots beets parsnip and radish root vegetables can be grown in any weather except freezes that means

They’re some of the first planted in any Garden in mild winter climates these make up the bulk of our fall winter and early spring garden but can also be grown through the heat of summer in cold winter climates these are usually planted or sewn in late winter early

Spring and grown through until your first freeze number 10 is brasas this is a family that includes broccoli cauliflower Chinese cabbage regular cabbage kale kabi and turnips these amazing plants are known to survive freezes down 25° F orus 3.8 C most are long Growers meaning they take months to

Mature these are great options for space saving interplanting because they take so long to grow to harvest you can plant quick growing crops right around them to maximize space that’s my 10 choices so get busy right now to make 2024 your best Garden year ever if you’re getting

  1. I'm in Idaho, with a LFD of 5/10. So it's going to be a couple weeks before I start anything other than my onions.

    Definitely looking forward to some tomatoes, and both bell and shishito peppers this year.

  2. I'm in Michigan and am not patiently waiting at all. I want to get my cheap green house put together now!!! Perhaps tomorrow 😂

  3. Hello hope you're having a good day. So I am trying a few things this year in pots. Bell peppers and hot peppers. Green onion and herbs.

  4. Thank you for another great video. I just followed the link to the video (2022) for growing sweet potatoes from slips. Left a question in comments on that post. Does anyone reply to comments in two year old videos or should I ask my question here? Regardless… here is the question: What about pests to be aware of? And how to deal with them if need be?

  5. Southern Indiana. Tomatoe potatoes, sweet potatoes, onion, peppers, zucchini, cucumbers, corn, bush greens, peas, radishes carrots, spinach

  6. Tomatoes! Last year was my first time growing them. I started off with an Early Girl and a Roma. This year I’m trying 18 varieties including Tomatillos! 😂🤯

  7. Fayetteville NC Zone 8B and last frost is around 3-15. I've grown a garden for 30 years and last year I grew my first heirloom Brandywine tomato and was absolutely blown away. This year I'm adding Cherokee purple and Kellogg's breakfast (one of your favs) and I've already have my pepper and tomato transplants started.

  8. I live in Navarre, Florida. It’s located on the Florida Panhandle. My favorite vegetables to grow are cucumbers,Peppers and tomatoes. Tomatoes are my biggest challenge. More than half of them will wilt and die. I have tried planting them in pots, raised bed and in ground. Any ideas to share?

  9. I'm in SC 8a and will be growing tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, bush beans herbs and lots of flowers all from seed. I owe this all to you for giving me the confidence to start a garden. After watching all your videos and buying your book, last year was my first successful year starting seeds and growing tomatoes and cucumbers. This year I will be trying a few more veggies. 😊

  10. I am from a town called Dallas Oregon. I am looking forward to trying carrots and beets, root tape vegetables, and I always have tomatoes.

  11. I bought the tomato seeds from Norfolk to see what the gmo tomatoes will grow like and taste like. But I can save the seeds because they are stabilized

  12. Beckley WV zone 6. Groundhogs ate all my braccias last year so excited to try Broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts this year n I will be deadly in groundhogs. Trapped n relocated 2 last year but I saw some young ones. 😩😩😩

  13. Im in Northwest Louisiana. Ive already started my tomatoes and cucumbers growing great and up-potting them getting ready to go outside. This year im adding corn, Paris Isle lettuce and Kentucky pole beans to my mix. I try to add at least one new thing to try each year. I cant wait to get all of my other veggies out and growing! Gardening saves me from the cripping depression that comes with the dibilitating pain of my CRPS/RSD (if you dont know what that is, please google it). Gotta do something to keep from going crazy. Thanks for another great video

  14. I’m in zone 9b. I recommend planting brassicas in the fall/winter. They are cold hardy plants. March would be too late. They will just bolt.

  15. I'm MOST excited this year because we are going to be building the NLG Tomato Trellis System! And one of the new tomatoes we're going to grow is the Kellogg's Breakfast. ❤️

    Additionally, this year's focus is growing to preserve. I'm going to try my hand at canning this year, along with dehydrating and freeze-drying a year's worth of fruits and veg.

  16. On it! Zone 6b Northeast Ohio! Today, uncovered the garlic, strawberries and stuck in some grow bag potatoes (portable just in case). Love the show!

  17. Snowing here today in SW Idaho – high desert, zone 6b. I'm so looking forward to tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, potatoes and butternut squash!!! Gonna try sweet potatoes and strawberries for the first time, too. Last frost May 10th.

  18. I grew lettuce this winter in zone 9b. It cam out unbearably bitter despite the cold conditions. Does anyone have an idea why this could happen in cold conditions?
