Start these Vegetable Seeds in February
February is prime seed-starting time. Slow growers like tomatoes, peppers, and herbs need that extra lead time to be ready when spring arrives. Our guide covers seven vegetables to start now, from easy wins like lettuce and brassicas to trickier crops like peppers that take a month just to sprout. Whether you're starting seeds indoors, in a greenhouse, or under cold frames, get these going now and you'll have strong transplants ready when planting season hits.
