Dunno about where you are but people around here say April 15 and no sooner.
Back home they wait til the May 24 long weekend - (it falls the weekend closest to May 24... Queen Victoria's b'day).
Anything before that there's a risk of frost.
Since you're between here and there, I'd say somewhere in between - but don't listen to me - I look at a terrestrial plant and it dies

Brooke started planing a bunch of seeds a couple of weeks ago, but inside, here the last frost could be May 9ish. go to burbee.com ?

I kill me 
Looking good - I can't believe how he's growing up! Been a while since I saw a pic of him - I haven't been around here much til the last few days or so.
Tearing up the sod is a killer
