Lynnville, IN: when does the frost end?

Zone 7a

Typically, the last spring freeze lands around 04/12, roughly 227 days out. Fall's first freeze usually shows up around 10/25, roughly 196 days after the last spring frost.

The USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map puts Lynnville in Zone 7a (0 to 5°F average annual minimum); frost dates are NOAA's 1991-2020 station normal, not this year's forecast.

Stretching the season past the first frost

With roughly 8 weeks until Lynnville's first fall frost, a row cover or cold frame is what stretches the last few weeks of harvest here.

Why 04/12 isn't a guarantee

04/12 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Getting tender plants in by 03/28 carries real risk, frost has hit that late in about 9 of 10 years here. Wait until 04/28 and only about 1 year in 10 sees frost after that.
