When looking at the details of our products some of the items will have a Care Level. This is an indicator of the difficulty that a gardener might have when growing and caring for that particular item. Here is a description of what each Care Level mean:

1 = Easy - these items are the easiest crops to grow. They are quick to mature and seed can be sown directly in the garden.

2 = Moderately Easy - these items are generally easy, but a bit more demanding or longer in crop time than 1s. They include items that can be sown directly in the garden, but have a moderate to long days to maturity.

3 = Normal - these items include the bulk of plants, including most types that are started from seed indoors and transplanted to the garden.

4 = Somewhat Difficult - these items have certain needs or requirements that must be met to have success with them. These may include specific soil requirements, need for a long growing season to mature, or preventative spraying for pest and disease control.

5 = Difficult - these items can be challenging to grow, as they have very specific site requirements or environmental needs that must be met in order for them to grow well.
