I live in Walla Walla which is sort of on the edge of this region and the Pacific Northwest. Which guide would you recommend using?
Debbie says
That was what I was trying to figure out. We’re north of Wenatchee.

I live in Spokane and have had pretty good luck using the North Central guide as apposed to the Pacific Northwest guide as we tend to have more temperature swings than that typical ‘Pacific Northwest’ highlighted region and less continued moisture. The two big differences are the last freeze/first frost and moisture amounts. Not sure specifically about Wenatchee or Walla Walla in regards to those two things but I would experiment and play it by ear. It might vary slightly depending on the crop as well. Good luck. 🙂
