Winter crop timing reference

Winter crop reference: a small list with distinct first-harvest windows

The curated Winter list contains nine records. Eight have a single harvest and one, Winter Peas, has regrowth. Use the timing columns to separate a short first wait from a repeat crop that must be started earlier.

Earliest first harvest from a day 1 start: Winter 5 (Lettuce, 4 growth days).

One 28-day window

Planting dates at a glance

These counts include crops with at least one modeled harvest by day 28. They do not count produce items or guarantee seed access.

Latest start for a first harvest

Latest start = 28 − initial growth days. Planting on that day gives a first harvest on day 28 under this model; repeats are not implied. A single-harvest crop is not automatically replanted. Only planner-eligible records appear below.

Growth days describe the first harvest; a repeat interval belongs to the same planting. Only crops listed for this season are shown. All 52 crop timings are available for planning. Read the source decisions and data notes.

Find the short waits in the single-harvest rows

Lettuce takes four days and Rainbow Chard takes six. Their latest first-harvest starts are therefore Winter 24 and Winter 22. That two-day difference matters at the end of the season: on Winter 23, Lettuce can still finish on day 27, while Chard’s first date would fall outside the window.

Neither crop has regrowth. A valid late start supplies one calculated harvest, and any replacement planting needs its own start. Use the dedicated Winter comparison guide to inspect adjacent boundary inputs without having to infer them from a crop label.

Winter Peas use a longer opening wait

Winter Peas have twelve initial growth days followed by a two-day repeat interval in the Plants snapshot. The short interval applies after that twelve-day opening wait. Winter 16 is their last start for a first harvest on day 28; a day-18 planting cannot fit even one first harvest in this model.

The day-18 and day-24 summaries therefore answer a first-harvest question, rather than counting every crop with a short repeat interval. Open an earlier Winter Peas plan if you want to inspect the repeat dates. For a late start, use the remaining eligible rows to find growth waits that actually fit.

Latest-start values use initial growth days only. The repeat interval affects subsequent dates in an opened plan, so it cannot extend the table’s first-harvest cutoff.

Keep verification and classification visible

The list comes from the curated Plants coverage, with selected item-page checks. Lettuce’s item supports four days and no regrowth. Chard’s supports six days and no regrowth; its Vegetable display follows the structured item tag, while the alternate Root labels remain noted. That classification difference is separate from the agreed date inputs.

These selected checks do not mean all nine Winter item pages were independently reviewed. Follow the row source for the evidence behind each record, and read seed regions as reference labels rather than a guarantee of access in your save.

  • Check the growth wait before the repeat interval.
  • Compare your start with the row’s latest first-harvest start.
  • Use the linked calendar to confirm which dates, if any, fall on or before Winter 28.
