Spring Into the March Growing Season
Whether you are a novice gardener or a seasoned pro, March brings so many possibilities. If you live in a warmer climate, you know this is the month when your garden can truly spring to life! It is always important to know your climate when planting your seeds whether in a greenhouse or in a raised bed. While you may be able to start planting the first week of March in the southern portion of the United States, northern areas may want to wait a little later in the month.
What to Grow in March
When the ground is soft enough for safe anchoring, you can set up your greenhouse kit. Here are ideas on what to plant in March depending on your climate.
| Vegetable or Plant | Suggested Variety | About This Variety |
|---|---|---|
| Broccoli | Calabrese | Broccoli is a great plant to grow early if you live in warmer climates. |
| Beets | Detroit Dark Red | Beets thrive in summer heat, but you can plant them now to take advantage of an early summer harvest. |
| Herbs | Thyme, Basil, Oregano, Sage and more! | Once the ground is ready, transfer herb plants into your garden in early spring. |
| Peppers | Sweet Banana, Super Chili, Japaleño | You can start early growing peppers indoors. These don't take up a lot of space and can be transferred outdoors. |
