In Scotland (Fife to be precise) the last frost looks to be the last week in April. This is good to know because I moved house last year and need to do something with the garden. What that ‘something’ looks like is unknown as of yet 😂

Oh hey! I’m new to gardening and I had no idea that I needed to think about last frost. I was considering planting some seeds on our balcony this week (South American cucumber-like mini melons, and Kapuzinerkresse) and now I’ve learned how to anchor my sowing :)

Turns out (as I have already intuited from reading your posts these last couple years) that Berlin is a month shifted from your zone when it comes to Last Frost, as illustrated on this handy map:
