Wow, you are really thinking ahead! What happened to spring and summer?

Here's a planting schedule for zone 7-8 for spring and fall planting, that should at least give you some ideas to start with:

Now that's what I like to see.

I was thinking fall garden before my spring garden was planted. :lol:

my fall garden seeds are still ripening on the plants outside for the fall. going to have a ton of greens again. I start my seedlings in full shade in late july. too much sun early on is bad and they don't grow as well, also it gets real hot here in july and august. they are nice and big by october and I'm eating them all winter long until about the middle of april when I let them go to seed.
