Autumn Gardening Begins
It's dropped into the 80's here, and we're freezerating to death. Break out the parkas! And the autumn vegie seeds!
Thus far, we've started calabrese brocolli, white globe cauliflower, 3 colors of beets, poinsett 76 cukes, alaska peas, california wonder pepper, straight-neck yellow squash, lettuce & spinach (various varieties), cherry and marmande tomatoes, zukes, romano beans, and anaheim peppers.
We don't know what will do well in our area in the fall and winter -- sometimes we get a few nights in mid-winter in which the temperature drops below freezing -- sometimes not.
We're also switching over from square foot to rows method -- better for drip irrigation and seeing what you've got.
Let the experimenting begin!
