Beginner plants

Vegetables such as beans, corn, cucumbers, peppers, and squash can be planted in May. The latest that most of these vegetables can be planted is mid-June.

Which is better for planting, seedlings or “beginner” plants? Both are fine- it just depends on how fast you want to start growing your vegetables. Local home improvement stores offer a wide variety of vegetable plants available to buy. The plants come with informational cards that tell you when and where to plant the vegetables, and when the vegetables are ready for harvest. Seedling packets are also available at the improvement stores and can be bought for fairly cheap.
