What Plant Yet? knows about dill, and where each number comes from. For today's answer, pick your town.

Left out because we found no university extension source for it: frost category, minimum night temperature, cold-damage temperature. We don't estimate.

Growing tips

• Sow every four to six weeks for a continuous supply of leaves. (Utah State University Extension)
• Thin seedlings to about nine inches apart. (Utah State University Extension)
• Grow in full sun; it does best direct-sown from seed. (Utah State University Extension)
• Sow through midsummer every two to three weeks for repeat harvests. (University of Minnesota Extension)

How the answer uses this

The planting window opens on the typical last frost date in your town and stays open while a planting still has 56 days to mature before the typical first fall frost. No source gives a cold limit for dill, so it never gets a Plant answer — only its dates.
