Seasonal context
Rainfall and the growing season in Tando Jam
August has the highest average precipitation (65 mm); November has the lowest (2 mm). Compare this pattern with the planting windows and your water supply.
During wetter months, check that beds and containers drain after heavy rain. During drier months, plan how you will keep seeds and new transplants watered. Monthly averages can hide long dry spells and intense storms; they do not show soil moisture, humidity or this week's weather.
Frost-free does not mean every month is suitable. In tropical and monsoon climates, rainfall, heat, drainage and the cultivar can set the practical growing season. Match the temperature window to these conditions and check advice from a local grower before buying planting material.

Local growing check
Before choosing peanuts for Tando Jam
- August is the wettest month in the rainfall grid, averaging about 65 mm. Check how your own bed drains and plan watering around actual soil moisture; monthly rain totals are not an irrigation schedule.
The temperature and rainfall tables on this page show the underlying climate estimates. How these suitability checks work · Record what happens in your garden.
Before you plant peanuts
Use the calendar to plan ahead, then check the conditions in your own garden.
- Measure the soil at sowing depth. Aim for at least 18°C (64.4°F); the calendar estimates soil warmth from air temperatures and cannot measure your bed.
- In a frost-free climate, check seasonal rainfall, humidity and heat before planting. A month with suitable average temperatures can still be too wet, dry or hot for this crop.
- Harden off plants raised indoors: gradually expose them to outdoor light, wind and temperature before their final move into the bed.
- Use the maturity range on your seed packet when choosing a variety. Cold, short days and transplant stress can make harvest later than the calendar estimate.
Leave loose soil for the pegs that form underground pods
Use sun and drained soil with adequate warmth for establishment. Avoid disturbing the pegging area once flowers are followed by pegs. Check the cultivar's full-season requirement before dedicating a bed in a short summer climate.
Lift a sample to assess pod maturity rather than judging the crop only from foliage. Harvest carefully and dry sound pods under suitable ventilated conditions before storage, discarding mouldy material. Keep the variety and planting date with the sample record.
What to record this season
Did pegs enter the soil easily, and what proportion of pods were mature when lifted? Add the cultivar, sowing date and conditions to your growing record so you can compare next season.

Why these dates
Frost-relative timing needs a dependable seasonal frost date. Tando Jam has no such date in this record, so this page compares monthly temperatures with the crop's model range instead. Local wet and dry seasons, day length and cultivar requirements still need a separate check.
The model uses a growing-temperature band for peanuts between 18°C (64.4°F)64.4°F (18°C) and 32°C (89.6°F)89.6°F (32°C) — and in Tando Jam that is October to March, 6 months of the year, taken from this location's own monthly averages. The planting window begins near the start of this period. The catalog estimate is 120 to 150 days from planting to maturity under suitable conditions.
