Fall Garden

[Bazooka Joe]

Just wondering who else has started their fall garden?

I was able to get my beans in before the rains yesterday evening. I also plan on getting lettuce, turnips, radishes, beets and carrots, and anything else that will mature before frost, out before long.

Strawberrys and peppers since I have just pulled my hydroponics back out.

I'm going to get some carrots, and leaf lettuce started sometime this week. Hopefully I can find some spinach seed to get some tasty spinach in also.

You have time for another crop of beans and peas. They actually like cool weather.

I've never grown carrots before--school me on that. Do I still have time?

This weekend is the start of the fall garden. My beans look good but failed to produce much of a harvest. They are still flowering. I might as well get some more in.

Remember cabbages and other cold weather veg's and if you could get some 72 day corn you might get more before the frost.

Sure do. And very easy to grow too.
Here is a good link on growing carrots. It also has other vegatables and fruits listed as well.

All your greens for the most part love the cooler climates. If you have ever tried to do greens you know that if you don't get them in early they grow 6' tall and seed before you can harvest a healthy yield. This is because the plant is threatened by the high temps. The soil temp is great right now, get those greens in, and if you can find a starter at the local nursery.... gourds and pumpkins will be ready by Oct 31 if you get them in now.

Nice graph. Very helpful!
We have sweet potatoes, carrots, and some lettuce in already. Planting beans and peas today, probably a bunch of buckwheat too (my bees will love the fall flowers) plus some more acorn squash and zuch's. Still trying to find artichoke and brussel sprout seeds that aren't hybrids.
