What to Plant in January
January is ideal for planning your season, starting select long-growing crops, and growing fresh microgreens and sprouts indoors—no matter which zone you call home.
January looks different in every growing zone.
Northern gardeners are usually planning and starting only the longest-season crops. Gardeners in warmer regions can begin more transplants and may sow cool-season crops outdoors when local conditions allow.
