From To Number of days
Daylight over 10 h 28 Feb 14 Oct 228
Persephone period 15 Oct 27 Feb 137
Plan the year's last sowing of cold-hardy plants in Bäjby so they are approximately 75% mature by 15 Oct when daylight drops below 10 h and growth starts to slow.

Daylight periods

Long-day plants like lettuce, spinach and coriander bolt when daylight gets too long. Plan sowing and harvest during periods when daylight is shorter (10-14 h). Early spring or late summer sowing gives the best results.

Season Light Period Days Advice
Shorter daylight 10-14 h 28 Feb – 12 Apr 44 Grow long-day plants like spinach, lettuce and coriander.
