Notes

Planted red Dutch shallots in the community garden, covered mostly in leaf-gro compost. Kind of an experiment.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
