Prague, OK: when does the frost end?

Zone 7b

Typically, the last spring freeze lands around 04/02, roughly 217 days out. Fall's first freeze usually shows up around 11/02, roughly 214 days after the last spring frost.

Prague sits in USDA Zone 7b (5 to 10°F average annual minimum). The dates above are NOAA's 1991-2020 normal at the nearest reporting station, a 30-year average, not a forecast.

Stretching the season past the first frost

With roughly 9 weeks until Prague's first fall frost, a row cover or cold frame is what stretches the last few weeks of harvest here.

How much risk comes with planting early here

04/02 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Getting tender plants in by 03/10 carries real risk, frost has hit that late in about 9 of 10 years here. Wait until 04/21 and only about 1 year in 10 sees frost after that.
