Looking ahead, bed depth?
Comments (7)Most people recommend 4 ft or less width for weeding purposes. I don't know how old you are, or the status of your back, but I would go with 3' wide if any of the above are a concern to you in the near future! My asparagus bed is 4' wide and I have troubles getting to the weeds in the center without stepping into the bed. All my other beds except one are 3 ft wide and I have no problem with them. The other 4' bed isn't a perennial bed, so it gets covered in the winter and fluffed up in the fall, so very few weeds. With the 3' beds, you would probably need more path room for the plants to expand so you don't trip over them (which happens occasionally anyway!) Good thing to think ahead! I started with an 8x8 bed (now converted to 2 3x8s with a tiny 1 ft path down the middle!) Had I been reading these forums in advance, I would have planned my garden much differently! All in all, it's turned out quite nice, thank you very much! ;) Nancy...See MoreLooking ahead... Zone 6 question
Comments (2)Mine start sprouting in mid March. There is no timeline for planting out as I plant out when the true leaves appear. As a general rule, I am done by the end of April with round one. Seeds that need continuous warm temps sprout later. i continue to sow through the summer with late fall plantout....See MoreLooking ahead to spring vegetable planting.
Comments (16)I grow climbing blackeyed peas and pick them while the pods are tender and use as snap beans, they stand up to the heat like you won't believe. I planted the ones from a bag at the grocery store. I agree with the armenian cukes, they love heat and you can eat them fresh or peel and cook like zucchini, really good grilled. I grow swiss chard all summer with just early morning sun and it does great. My peppers produced all through the summer heat except the jalapeno which shut down by August but the gypsy's, Joe Parkers and Red Marconis are still going strong. Tomatillos will take the heat and a good source of vitamin C. Anybody who likes bush beans should try Dragon Tongues, I ordered them from Baker Creek Nursery, they are now my favorite bush bean. The beans are large and meaty and stringless. They are a beautiful yellow and purple striped bean that cooks up yellow and taste great,prolific producers and take the heat well....See MoreLOOKING for: Upscale Tailgate Party for 20-22 year olds
