We have a short, intense growing season. If you start too late, you get no tomatoes. If you start too early, the frost kills your hard work and you have to start over. Ignore the generic advice you see on Instagram from gardeners in California, unless you have a greenhouse you can't do what they can. Follow these steps instead.
