These five Texas dates are historical average fall starts, not deadlines. Open a regional guide for the source and timing details.

PLANNING A TEXAS FALL CROP

A few things to keep in mind.

Look at maturity information and your local frost outlook together. The average start in the table is not a guarantee of a harvest.
