Growth Timeline

  • Growing Season: Most fruits/veggies have their peak growing season starting in spring and extending through fall. They need a runway of consecutive warm days and nights (from 60-90) to produce fruit.
  • First Harvest: Fruits/veggies take 2-3 months to bear fruit and/or reach ripeness.
  • Final Harvest: Fruits/veggies start to give out between late summer and early fall in most climates. Some plants, such as strawberries, will become dormant in winter before popping back into action in for spring, but most fruiting plants will need to be replaced after their season is over.

Growing Zone

Grows best in zones 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.

Most fruits and veggies prefer warmer temperatures and will be dormant or grow very slowly in colder climates. Refer to the following guidelines concerning extreme weather:

COLD CLIMATES

  • Fruits/veggies require nighttime temperatures to consistently be in the 50s or above to survive.

WARM CLIMATES:

  • Fruits/veggies are made for the heat and will do fine with temperatures above 90 degrees.

To find out what extreme temperatures your location experiences, check out the USDA zone for your region.

More Fruit & Veggie Tips

Support Trailing Plants: Unless you are growing smaller plants (jalapeño or micro-tomatoes) you might want to use stakes, trellises, or cages to support the plants as they grow. This will prevent them from sprawling on the ground. Train the vines to grow vertically for better air circulation and easier harvesting.
