Biggs, CA 95974 Frost Dates
When can you plant in Biggs, CA?
Around 01/29 is the usual last spring frost, about 154 days away. The first fall frost typically arrives around 12/07, about 317 frost-free days later.
The USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map puts Biggs in Zone 9b (25 to 30°F average annual minimum); frost dates are NOAA's 1991-2020 station normal, not this year's forecast.
What to do before the first frost

Why 01/29 isn't a guarantee
01/29 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 02/28 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 12/28 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
