Everybody's yard is a little bit different, so if you want a gage, you'll want to look a forsythia bush. Ganim says that once they're fully bloomed and through their cycle, that means your soil temperature is warm enough, and you can move on to some of the grass treatments, and warmer weather vegetables.
