Spring is the perfect time to sow a variety of fruits and vegetables to prepare for the warm months that will soon follow.

Gardening experts recommend starting seeds in late March to give plants a head start and ensure a bountiful harvest when the weather warms up. This season is ideal for planting a mixture of root vegetables, leafy greens, and early fruits that can be enjoyed until summer, Sunplaza.info writes.

Most root vegetables have a similar growing process, but it may differ depending on the type. The same goes for leafy greens and fruits.

Root crops such as carrots, beets, and onions are ideal for sowing from late March after the last frost, as they thrive in cool spring conditions until the summer heat sets in.

If you’re looking to grow leafy greens this year, lettuce and spinach are great options for sowing early in the season. Similar to root vegetables, they grow well in colder spring temperatures if planted after the last frost.

Fruits such as berries and tomatoes can be started indoors or in greenhouses, giving them a head start before moving them outside when the weather warms up.
