Plan your brussels sprouts planting around local frost risk and soil temperature, then work backward from the harvest week your buyers need. The calendar below is a starting point, not a field-level weather forecast.
Charleston SC, Savannah, Mobile, Austin, Jacksonville. Average last spring frost March 15, first fall frost November 15 — a 245-day frost-free season.
Windows are calculated from your zone's average frost dates. Adjust ±1 week for microclimates, elevation, and your own frost records.
Fall-only crop in the Southeast. Top the plant 4 weeks before target harvest for uniform sprouts up the stem.
Plant near: onions, dill
Keep away from: strawberries
BAU Farm Intelligence turns these windows into per-field tasks — indoor seed-start reminders, transplant dates, harvest projections — using your farm's actual frost history.
