When should you begin to start seeds indoors?

Some summer vegetables (like tomatoes or peppers) can be started indoors between 4 and 8 weeks before your last frost date. But don't rush to plant all your seeds! You can start more than one batch of transplants and then make more than one planting to ensure a lengthy harvest.

Last frost dates for VA:
Zone 6a: 5/5 - 5/15
Zone 6b: 4/25 - 5/5
Zone 7a: 4/15 - 4/25
Zone 7b: 4/5 - 4/15
Zone 8a: 4/5 - 4/15

Remember that your last frost date is just an estimate and you should still be careful putting plants like tomatoes outside as the date arrives--always check your weather and use your judgement about whether its time to transplant. Your local Master Gardeners can also help!
