Growing season in Redwood City, CA
Redwood City's average last spring frost is around Jan 17, and its first fall frost around Dec 12 — a growing season of roughly 329 days. These figures come from the nearest NOAA station with long-term records (Redwood City, CA).
These are 1991–2020 averages, not guarantees: about half of years see a frost a little later in spring or earlier in fall. Cautious gardeners wait a week or two past the last-frost date before setting out frost-tender plants, or keep row cover handy for surprise cold snaps.
To build a planting calendar, count backward from the last spring frost for indoor seed-starting, and forward from the first fall frost for crops that need time to mature before cold returns.
