Warm Weather Winter Gardening!!

~ illbtru ~ 2 Comments

It is hard to believe how fast the veggies grow in the warm temperatures this winter!

The lettuce, radish, arugula, beets, spinach and Oriental greens seedlings were started November 30th.

The broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, collard and kale transplants have tripled in size. The color and texture are simply marvelous!

Sweet Peas will be started this weekend and should be ready to pick by late winter/early spring. The transplants will be started in cell packs to be planted by mid-January.

It has been so warm, the rhubarb and strawberries are starting to take off.

You should definitely try your hand at Fall and Winter gardening.

Zucchini, beans and zinnias are all enjoying the cooler evenings! I will use some of the transplants to fill in gaps on the bean bed. Never let space go to waste! Please click on the pictures below for a closer look!

I will keep you posted on the progress. Plus, I will add low tunnel frames to the beds to get ready for cooler temperatures.
