Against the frost risk in Thị Trấn Đông Triều
Why these dates
Sow direct every three weeks from four weeks before the last frost until about ten weeks before the first. An autumn sowing overwinters for a very early spring crop.
Tolerates about -8C. Autumn sowings survive most temperate winters and stand through cold weather without bolting.
