Well for one. We don't know where you live. I live in Wisconsin.





And we always wait until around the end of May to plant. Cause there is always that chance for that frost.





carrots or anything that grows under ground can be planted a little earlier, but make sure you keep them covered.





But, you best bet is to wait then take the chance of a frost damaging or killing your seedlings.





I know one is always tempted to put things in the ground early. But if you get frost, then you end up having to go and get more plants, seeds, etc.





Good luck
Reply:You can start your seeds inside, just like you did the tomato plants. Unfortunately you do have to wait to work the garden outside until after the chance of freezing temperatures.





I know how hard it it to wait!

I agree with some of the other answers. One of the biggest things you need to wait for is the ground and air temperature to warm up. You can start your seeds inside. Your planting season starts in May, so get a head start on your garden now, by germinating seeds.





I will link you to the spice and herb section of my website. There is a page on growing herbs from seeds. This process is good for vegetables and also flowers. I will also link you to the site map, as this page has everything that is on the website. Browse through as there are many articles, tips and techniques that may give you some additional information.





Good luck to you and wait until that ground temperature warms up so the roots of the plants can get established in the ground. Have a great day!
