@Rainbow-Like you, what else can you plant in your garden so early in the season
Besides planting peas (which have been a total delight in eating) I wanted to see if I could plant Broccoli and Brussel Sprouts and Cabbage too. So I made it my cause to do so and having all of those veggies doing well, I've learned a few things along the way.
First, leave lots of room for the big three. I really had no idea just how big Broccoli and Brussel Sprouts can get. And my cabbages are still in the developing stage, but my goodness they are growing...........
I have taken Steve's suggestion and begun harvesting my side shoots from the broccoli which in turn has given me more than I ever thought possible. This in turn lets me share with others, who are really surprised to see it coming out of a "home garden". Still waiting on the Brussel Sprouts and Cabbage.
My broccoli may not look as cute as the store bought kind but in the taste department, it's out of this world. Than again maybe it's the type I am growing, I dunno know.
