In most of the USA, it's past the time for planting. I start with vegetable seeds indoors about 5 weeks before the last frost and then plant them outside.
Reply:No, not too late... DEpending on your zone, you can very well start growing fall veggies like peas, lettuce, kohlrabi, bok choi, etc.
Reply:No, it is not a dumb question. Gardening season is just about over in the USA. You will need to wait until next spring after the last frost before planting most seeds outdoors. The night temps need to be around 68 degrees and up before planting.





During the winter, go into the internet and learn how to plant the seeds you have. Some need to be soaked before planting. Some need to be put into the fridg for about 6 weeks before planting. And so on. Do research.
