Care through the season
During active growth, keep moisture reasonably even and check the plant regularly for weather stress, pests and signs of nutrient imbalance. Water the root zone rather than wetting foliage unnecessarily, and adjust feeding to the crop and soil rather than to a fixed routine.
Harvest, use or garden role
Harvest at the stage that suits the crop and intended use. Local weather, cultivar and site conditions can shift sowing, planting and harvest dates by several weeks, so plant development should take priority over a fixed calendar date.
Calendar dates are orientation only. Local temperature, rainfall, soil condition and cultivar should always take priority over a fixed month.
