Crop Planning Template

Need a pre-filled crop plan?

I have one ready for you if you need it. I made it with zone 7 in mind, but it could work for other areas too. It even has lettuce planting dates and notes on which plantings should go in tunnels or not. You can use it as a starting point for your own plan.

The prefilled plans come in three versions, each one prioritizes and works back from either harvest date, seeding date, or planting date and you can choose the type you prefer.
