北美的無霜日

2013-04-18 13:21:58

每年此時,都有人問:我什麼時候可以種花?

安全的種花時間是無霜日Frost-free Days。不論是農人,或是一般的園藝愛好者,都會知道什麼是無霜日。每年的無霜日就是農人種植的日子。如果你種的是怕霜的植物,就是所謂的一年生植物annuals,就非得等到無霜日之後才能種。而到秋天開始落霜之後,這些植物就會凍死。

多數的蔬菜類植物,好像蕃茄,瓜類,豆類,辣椒類植物都非常怕霜,一定要等到完全無霜害危險之後才能種。而一般一年生花卉類,也必須要等這一天之後才能種到土裡。這類包括常見的鳳仙花Impatiens,喇叭花Petunia,天竺葵Geranium,秋海棠Begonia,美人蕉Canna等。

過去無霜日都是在北美「農民曆」(Farmer’s Almanac) 中刊載,但目前可以在網上查到。知道無霜日的起始,可以計算那一年你住地區的種植時間有多少天。好像多倫多今年的無霜日,是由五月九日開始,到十月六日止,其間共有149天。也就是說,你可以在五月九日之後將怕寒的植物幼苗種在戶外地裡。而在未來的149天,植物才有機會成長。到了十月中,夜裡可能會落霜,凡是未收成的農作物就可能凍死。(不過這日期只是預計,到時還是要注意氣象報告,以免植物種下後遇到夜晚落霜,徒勞無功。一般都是遲幾天種,以防萬一。而怕寒植物如蕃茄,瓜豆類等,最好多等一兩個星期。)

另外你也可以查出每一種蔬菜類需要的種植時間,計算在你那一區,是否有足夠時間種那種作物。好像南瓜由幼苗種植開始,需要85-125天成熟;西瓜需要90天。而蕃茄則需要60-85天,更冷的地方可能就不夠時間。所以一般都是提早在室內播種,等天暖後移植幼株到戶外,或是在園藝店購買幼株回來移植,就可以確保有足夠時間生長。
