How do I know when to start my seeds indoors?

You can use the `calculate_planting_schedule` tool. By providing the plant's maturity days and your target harvest date, it will calculate the exact `indoorSeedStart` date for you.

Can I plan for a continuous harvest?

Yes, use the `get_succession_intervals` tool. It calculates the specific dates you should sow subsequent batches to ensure you have produce available throughout the season.

How does the tool handle frost risks?

The server uses `verify_frost_safety` to check if a plant's frost tolerance (hardy, half-hardy, or tender) is compatible with predicted frost dates and your planned transplant date.
