Do you want to grow asian greens seeds in Wisconsin, but don’t know when to start them?
Starting asian greens seeds is not as easy as it seems.
Here’s why:
- Asian Greens Seeds must be consistenly watered, receive at least 8 hours of sunlight a day, & be kept at room temperature of at least 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
So if you don’t consistently water them they won’t germinate. If they aren’t in a room that is at least 70 degrees Fahrenheit they won’t sprout. And if it receives 8 hours of sunlight the plant itself won’t grow.
- Bbecause Wisconsin’s growing season is not long enough, asian greens seeds cannot be sowed outside and should only be started indoors.
Because of this, I’m going to teach you the ideal time to start asian greens seeds indoors in Wisconsin:

When to Start Asian Greens Seeds Indoors
Depending on the type of asian greens, it takes roughly 40-60 days (6 to 8 weeks) to grow asian greens from seed indoors before you can transplant them into your garden.
The approximate date of when you should start your asian greens seeds indoors can be found by:
- Finding the last average frost date HERE
- And then subtract 60 days from it
You can also find the average last frost date for most major cities in the below chart that I have created:
To help ensure the greatest success of your asian greens seeds germinating you should:
- Use a heat mat to ensure the gardening pot remains at 70 degrees Fahrenheit
- Use a grow light to control how much light your asian greens seeds receive
- Water your seeds with a spray bottle to ensure your seeds are not overwatered
It should also be noted that you will not want to introduce your asian greens plants into your garden until 2 weeks after your last frost or else your plant will potentially die or not bear vegetables.
