Looking for a spreadsheet for planting times

Hello! My old desktop crashed last year, along with it was a spreadsheet I had found years ago. You plug in the last frost/freeze dates and it would calculate planting times for each crops based on SFG times. I remember a nice guy had created it on his blog/page but I have googled like crazy and can't seem to find it. Anyone have a copy they would like to share ?

TIA,

Buy the book mentioned in my strap lines it has a lot of useful spread sheet such as days to germinate , temperatures etc as well as explaining in depth The All New Square Foot gardening system and it won't be lost if you computer crashes

Hi April. Welcome to our party!

I know if you go to www.gardenate.com, you can put in your zip code & it will tell you what to plant on a monthly basis. I use it here in my monthly regional update.

What I did was set up a gardening calendar in Outlook. I know my last frost date is April 15. I count back from there to when I should seed, etc. And forward to when I should start harvesting. I also put in the 1st frost date & work backwards & forwards. It works for me...

Here is a good resource. I can't remember if this one can be converted to an excel spreadsheet but I think some of Johnny's can be.

This page shows a fall planting spreadsheet but not a spring spreadsheet.

Here is another one you can download.

I don't have the slightest idea if it is accurate.

Here is the same calculator with instructions.
