Timeline Breakdown:
High Winter: This month covers the depths of winter. It’s too cold for planting.
Low Winter (~Mid-Winter to Late Winter): Ground is likely still frozen or too cold for planting.
Dawning (~Late Winter to Early Spring): By the end of this month, temperatures start to warm up, and farmers could begin preparing the fields for planting, and early sowing of peas and summer grains.
Greening (~Early Spring): In this time frame, planting season would begin in earnest. By the end of this month, they could move on to crops like wheat and other grains.
Low Summer This month would see the bulk of planting completed. Warmer-weather crops like beans and some vegetables would go into the ground here.
Summary: The planting season in Kaevil begins early in Month 4 and lasts through Month 5, corresponding to roughly the equivalent of early spring to late spring in temperate climates. This is when the soil has thawed enough for plowing, and the risk of frost has decreased enough for crops to start growing.
