Vegetables Gardening - Growing Organic Vegetables

Hey thanks so much for putting this together. This is great!

I have a request. Is there any chance that you could extend this to other season planting as well (i.e. summer, fall).

Thanks-o-bunch.

Be Prepared & Group:

For later plantings just determine your First Day of Fall Frost (FDFF) - by calling your County Extension office or looking on the web. Then look at the planting schedule and back off from the FDFF as many days as you need to assure you get a crop.

The hardy and semi-hardy plants can be expected to withstand some light frost, so often you can harvest them well past the first fall frost, but sensitive and frost-intolerant varieties can not be expected to survive that first frost.

Plan accordingly, and when that day comes you need to be prepared and DO harvest the tender crops before the frost get them.

One of the saddest days in a garden is the day after a frost when the gardener did not protect or harvest his crops.
