Their crops.

The colonial people's crops grew in the spring, summer, and fall. Sometime on curtain things they harvested them in the winter. Although they were very organized on where to plant, and when to plant their crops. They also knew that if they needed a lot or a very little photosynthesis. And how much they need to water them and stuff like that.
