What these dates mean in North Florida
Planting usually runs about 61 days, from Mar 1 to Apr 30.
That start date is close to the middle of the 3 places in this data set that report corn, sweet planting dates (Mar 1).
Frost-date caveat: these are published ranges for North Florida. A northern or high-elevation site will run later than a southern or low one, and a cold wet spring can push planting past the window. North = north of SR 40, Central = SR 40 to SR 70, South = below SR 70; frost dates and local conditions vary. Check your last spring frost and soil temperature, and confirm with your county extension office.
