How to read the year In Cuneo, the garden year is best read from the cautious last-frost date: after May 15, windows become more suitable for sensitive crops.
The strongest part of the calendar falls in June, July, August: these are the months with the most recommended direct-sowing and transplant windows.
Toward autumn, the cautious first frost is around October 6. The main year-level check is: cold risk for sensitive sowing, dry-spell risk: plan irrigation.

Method Start from local dates Use the dates for Cuneo as practical guidance, then adjust for exposure, elevation, and shelter in your garden.
Check cold, heat, and dry spells Before sowing or transplanting, check frost, cold nights, heat waves, and periods without rain.
Respect crop needs Each crop needs warm enough soil, frost protection, and a different amount of time to reach harvest.
Choose the safest window Use recommended windows as the main reference; move earlier or later only when weather and microclimate help.
Sources and limits Use these dates as practical guidance, not fixed deadlines. Exposure, soil, containers, irrigation, and the next few days' forecast can move the right timing earlier or later.
