April planting calendar

By Toni Busquets
April 1, 2022

April planting calendar. It is spring and now it is time to be able to grow many things that we will begin to taste in a few months. Remember that these are boom times. Our orchard will be filled with colors and shapes. The sun is coming, the heat and the longer days are going to be part of everyday life in the garden or orchard.

It is time to start planting some seedlings that we made months ago. And put seedlings of the plants that need the most sun and heat. We forgot about the hot seedbeds and now it’s time to take them outside and … Be very careful on hot days, as seedlings tend to dry out very quickly.

So take note, we’re getting started.
