Editions EN English IT Italian Garden calendar for San Severo For San Severo, this calendar shows when to sow, transplant, and protect the garden, based on local frost, heat, dry spells, and crop windows.
How to read the year In San Severo, the garden year is best read from the cautious last-frost date: after March 21, windows become more suitable for sensitive crops.

Method Start from local dates Use the dates for San Severo 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.
