May have to order online (of course, it's a great excuse to get your garlic too...)<br /><br />Carol, thanks as always for the feedback! I'm a little new at the fall planting thing, so I appreciate it!Robbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03915194141694632310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780979693195745238.post-66431546988573096592009-07-26T23:29:14.716-04:002009-07-26T23:29:14.716-04:00I think it is too late for melons, they take about...I think it is too late for melons, they take about 75 days to mature and that might be once the fruit appears. You might try potatoes but it would be cutting it close.<br /><br />Parsnips are supposed to get sweeter the longer they are in the garden in the winter.<br /><br />I'm going to sow more this fall than I usually do... greens, lettuce, onions, radishes, short-season beans.<br /><br />Carol, May Dreams GardensCarol Michelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07796344366326535406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780979693195745238.post-53639893862197146212009-07-26T23:24:04.613-04:002009-07-26T23:24:04.613-04:00I'd love to hear how this goes for you!

I'm having a hard time finding anything for sale to plant, even seeds, this time of year!City Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12810190793006825345noreply@blogger.com
