Succession sowing spreads harvests instead of producing one large glut. Stop or delay a planned sowing when the crop's seasonal window closes, germination conditions are poor, or the previous batch is still occupying needed space. Maturity dates are planning estimates and vary by variety and weather.

HOW TO USE IT

Make the next garden decision with less guesswork.

Succession sowing spreads a crop across several small batches. Choose a crop, a first sowing date, the repeat interval and the number of sowings to generate a clear calendar you can follow through the season.

Each later sowing is offset from the first date by the chosen interval. The planner then adds the crop's typical maturity period to estimate a harvest target and surrounding harvest window. Weather, variety, day length and crop stress can shift actual maturity.

WORKED EXAMPLE

Put the result into a real garden situation.

If lettuce is sown on 1 April and you choose a 14-day interval for four batches, the planner creates sowing targets around 1 April, 15 April, 29 April and 13 May. Each batch then gets its own expected maturity target instead of pretending all four sowings will be harvested on the same day.
