Sow at the right time and give your crops the best start 

Why soil temperature is important for sowing

Different crops have an ideal temperature for sowing to ensure optimal growth, making your local weather conditions key to timing. Soil temperature is influenced by factors like soil type, color, slope, moisture levels, and weather conditions such as cloud cover and air temperature.

That’s why you can’t rely on general reports about soil temperature. Nothing short of an in-field sensor will do the trick - it doesn’t get much more local than that.

The secret to high yields lies in the timing of your seeding and the further weather conditions to ensure your plants thrive in optimal conditions.

"I often look at the soil temperature and follow it closely when we’re sowing and to see how it develops during spring. I also track it during fall to know when the growth slows down."
