Long growing period – start early indoors, cold-sensitive.
Celeriac (also known as Knollensellerie) belongs to the Vegetables category and is suitable for outdoor planting from Mid Spring onwards.
Use the Growing Temperature Sum (GTS) as a guide: Celeriac can be safely transplanted once the local GTS has passed the threshold for Mid Spring and no frost is expected. GrowPilot.guide calculates the current GTS for your location automatically.
🗓️ Tip: Always check the 10-day weather forecast before planting outdoors. The GTS is a helpful guide but does not replace a frost check for your specific area.
