Do any of these need starting now, or should I shut the hell up and wait

I hardly dare mention this in such august company, but my dear, old,
grumpy uncle (who rarely agreed with grandfather) told me when I was a
slip of a lad, "Plant by the weather, boy, not by the calendar." When
I had the audacity to show him what my gardening book said, he
replied, "Pah! plants can't read, boy!" So just keep that in mind and
you won't go far wrong.
