Veggies- What can be planted in late summer early fall?

Question

I am fairly new to veggie gardening. My husband and I have done pretty well but we have cleared out our potatoes and the green beans are pretty much done and we were deciding if there are any veggies we can go a head and plant now or later in the summer or early fall. We are already planning on lettuce. Any other suggestions?

Answer 1

I just planted some squash last weekend, and this weekend (seven days later) the seeds have already sprounted and formed their second set of leaves. I am highly confident that I will have squash by late September and, with first frost in late October, I expect to have one month of really nice squash (and probably no vine borer problem).

Leafy plants also work. Try lettuce, spinach and even broccoli. Cucumbers might get started now for some production later, but they do hate cold.

Answer 2

It all depends on where you live and the date of your first expected frost. Ask your neighbors or call your state extension agent to find out what that date might be. Then read seed packets to find seeds that might mature within the number of days you have left before frost. If all fails, you should at least be able to get some radishes (28-35 days). Other short season crops include spinach, arugula, and maybe even peas.

Good luck!

Red & Green Cabbage-broccoli-and if you like green leafy veggies-there are collard greens and mustard greens- I live in the South and here, a lot of people like those leafy veggies, so its common for farmers to plant them.

peas, broccoli, kale, green beans, radishes, lettuce, to name a few.

All have relatively short maturity times - except the broccoli, but broccoli likes maturing in cooler weather, and you tend to get bigger heads than spring-planted broccoli. Also - it take take a freeze. (multiple freezes will kill it, though)
