Planning The Early Fall Garden


This morning I cleaned and prepare three beds before the rain started again. Maybe some seeds will make it into the ground if the lightning stops. A little drizzle won't drive me in, but once the lightning starts only an emergency will keep me outside! Lightning scares me.

This is the plan for the early fall garden. As the okra, eggplant, tomatoes, and peppers finish, I'll add other veggies. Ooops, I forgot to make a space for garlic. I'll have to altar something.

Bed Number and Contents:

1. Snow Peas
2. Sugar Ann Peas
3. Okra (Vidrine)

4. Wando Peas
5. Sugar Snap Peas
6. Lincoln Peas

8. Cabbage: Late Flat Dutch, Mammoth Red Rock, Henderson's Charleston Wakefield, Nero Di Toscana (Black Palm Tree), Bacalan De Rennes, Bok Choy

9. & 10. Calendula-Pacific Beauty, Nasturtiums-Dwarf Jewel Mix, Cosmos-Sensation Mix, Bachelor Buttons-Tall Mix, Poppy-Frosted Salmon

14. Onions-Red Creole, Australian Brown, Granex Yellow (Hybrid),Bronze D'Ampasta, Gold Princess, Early Texas Grano

15. Greens: Collards-Georgia Southern, Mustard-Southern Giant Curly, Japanese Giant Red Mustard.

20. Brussel Sprouts- Long Island Improved, Cauliflower-Romanesco Precoce, Rutabaga-American Purple Top
