Your garden doesn't have to take an "off" season. Check out these seed recommendations tailored to your zone range. From winter vegetables to indoor sprouts and microgreens, there is something for everyone to plant this month! These recommendations are for planting seeds in January. Happy gardening!
Zones 1-7a: These zones experience cold winters with extended periods of freezing temperatures. In January, it is best to limit direct sowing to wildflower seeds that will sprout in spring. Indoor sowing of microgreens, sprouts, and herbs is an effective way to continue harvesting fresh produce!
Zones 7b-9a: These zones experience mild winter weather, allowing some crops to be sown directly outdoors, including leafy greens, herbs, bunching onions, radishes, cover crops, poppies, sweet peas, and calendula. Don't forget to grow some sprouts and microgreens indoors!
Zones 9b-12: The warm-winter, frost-free zones of 9-12 thrive in mid-winter. January is a great time to plant many vegetables, cover crops, flowers, and herbs outdoors. Enjoy a break from the hot summer temperatures while your plants are less stressed by the heat.
