📅 When to Plant Hyssop?

Hyssop (also known as Ysop) belongs to the Herbs category and is suitable for outdoor planting from Mid Spring onwards.

Use the Growing Temperature Sum (GTS) as a guide: Hyssop 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.

❄️ Frost Sensitivity & Protection

Hyssop is frost-hardy and withstands moderate freezing temperatures well. Can be planted early in spring once the ground is workable. Ideal minimum night temperature: 0°C.

🌡️ Optimal Temperatures

Hyssop grows best at daytime temperatures between 12°C and 32°C. Night temperatures should not fall below 0°C.

🍄 Mold & Rain Tolerance

Hyssop is relatively robust against mold and tolerates wetter conditions well. Still, always avoid waterlogging.

Rain sensitivity: High – Prolonged rain can cause damage – protection with a film cover or roof overhang is recommended.
