Resources
Pink Garden Plot keeps sources attached to the state and region they support. The validated August starter batch draws from reviewed Extension and land-grant materials without turning one state's guidance into a national default.
Available research
The canonical national registry keeps location sources with each model, while the first August bundle keeps horticultural sources attached to plant guidance and activity windows.
Source scope retained per recordLocal help
State or county guidance may be newer and more specific than a broad regional row, especially for cultivars, diagnoses, and local restrictions. New York and Vermont still require a county/local selection step before their fallback models can be used honestly.
County/local runtime step pendingHardiness
Hardiness zones describe average extreme winter cold for perennials; they do not encode local heat, rainfall, microclimates, or annual crop timing.
