Default Re: Days to harvest - accurate ?

Yeah last year was a wash out, then we had the blight
Still managed to get some tomatoes, cukes & squash, zero peppers
Had over a dozen pumpkins
Its been 2 years since I had a bumper crop....so I'm overdue
This year is looking pretty good so far
But they are saying its been warmer earlier...which is good

With the greenhouse next year I want to plant some in the ground once its warm enough in the greenhouse to start growing
That I think means early March, & starting the seedlings inside in Feb

This is the 1st year I haven't bought any seedlings from any store
Everything from seed
Recorded when I planted seeds, approx germination times
I'm keeping records of when things start to flower
When I see the 1st "fruit" forming etc
Then days to harvest
That way I can work backwards for next year to figure out a date to start my seedlings
