I'm waiting to plant my winter garden, until it gets under 100 degrees!! Maybe by next week?

I am planning to put in several types of lettuce, spinach, beets, cilantro, and dill. I just moved my tomatoes so they will get more sun. I hope by December to have a good crop of Yellow Pear tomatoes. My Habeneros and Anchos are putting out flowers and have some fruit.

Nothing...no such thing really in MN.
We are in the midst of drought, so all my summer stuff shriveled up and died. And we've already had 3 frosts/freezes...the season is over in MN. :(

Bedste is in Texas--a far piece from your location. Don't know about okra in the fall, but any green will do well in the fall and early winter in Texas, and tomatoes till the first frost--which may come tomorrow--or may not come till Jan--ya just never know round here.

My garden--weeds and grass-I didn't do a fall garden--never do. Too much cow stuff to handle this time of year, so I just don't have the time for gardening.

The chickens! LOL, had enough for one season, so now it's up to the girls to pre-condition it for us!

Cabbages are growing nicely, as are the turnips...collard greens pretty much washed out in our last storm. Funny thing is that from feeding the chickens last year any rotten tomatoes and just tossing them into their outside pen caused tomato plants to grown in there...our regular tomatoes this summer are done, yet those chicken pen plants (that grew up tall and over the top of the pen) are still producing....go figure. Also the small fig tree that didn't produce this summer yet is for some reason now producing a few this fall?
