I really like the campari tomatoes from Sam's, so I found some seeds on the web and planted these around the coop with basil and a few bell pepper plants as well.

Looks great JP! Built in insect control

I tilled up and fertilized a row this morning. I plan to sow some broccoli and cauliflower seeds in part of it tomorrow and hope for the rains to rain them in. I'll transplant them in mid September.

They are already coming up. Here you go.

Hadn't been out to the garden for 3 or 4 days and BAM!!

Look what survived Harvey.

I should be able to transplant my broccoli within a week or so. Looks like around three dozen.



I didn't get a good stand on my cauliflower. Maybe a half dozen.



My cilantro comes back about twice a year. Take a peek.

It's not pretty, but its the best I could do. Here are my transplants. You can see turnips and mustard greens on the left.



I still have these that I plan to give to my neighbors.




I can now start using my cilantro.

we have a small 4x8 garden spot that we normally leave the summer tomato plants in that produce fall tomatoes but we pulled up the plants when they quit producing back in July ... is now the time to plant something like turnips or other greens to produce until we get a freeze? other things to plant now?

Some of the fall plants will take a freeze, including, turnips, broccoli, cabbage, and cauliflower.

broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage and cauliflower are fall garden staples

might give some a try, thanks

here's a list I posted, its the Victoria area so your dates may be a week or so early

wow, Dec. for mustard and turnip? that seems late ...

Sure anywere north of 10 it would be early

Victoria could prolly grow them all winter

Trying to see which type of fall/winter plants do well in my area. Last year was a bust.

3 kinds of cabbage
broccoli
dinosaur kale
red spinach

I did find a Kiowa pecan spout that come off a root that I thought was dead. Thats pretty cool. Not sure when to plant that. Its pretty small. 4" or so.

Got my Wintergarden going squash zucchini brussels sprouts cabbage carrots broccoli cabbage.

Transplanted a kiowa pecan sapling two days ago. One of my younger kids has already stepped on it after removing the cage that was protecting it. Bummer. MIA or KIA. Not sure except its gone.

Beautiful day. Lets compare and contrast.

This is one of my best cauliflower plants. It's starting to curl in around where the head will be. It should be ready for thanksgiving. I've had them on the thanksgiving dinner table in the past. My wife was great at dressing up the dinner table. She made centerpiece with them.



The broccoli is getting ready to head. I transplanted three dozen of them, and gave away that many or more.



My mustard greens are ready. I'm just not yet in the mood. I picked up some ham hocks last week. Maybe next week.



Cilantro of coarse.

I gave my neighbor half of my garden. He planted some sweet potatoes and shared a few. Here again, I make a thanksgiving sweet potato dish using maple syrup , with a dash of cayenne.

My turnips are now bulbiing. I plan to cook up some next week with a batch of mustard greens.




That planting chart was wrong for broccoli. I planted these from seed on August first. I transplanted them around the middle of September. Take a close look and you can see a broccoli head starting to form.



I'm putting cilantro in everything I cook. It's still trying to take over.

Looks as if I'm the only one left on this forum.

My broccoli has started to head. Take a peek.



I will have broccoli to eat, freeze, and give away through Christmas.

I plan to make a hot and sour soup with some of my turnips and turkey trimmings next week. They are ready.

Went outside and took some pictures for you Bill. My fall cherry tomatoes are still producing strong. They love this mild weather. We can't eat them fast enough.

Do you recall when those were planted? Looks great.

They are actually volunteer plants that came up from seed of fallen tomatoes off my spring plants. They were sprouting wild before the spring plants gave out. At least a couple transplanted from the edge of my compost pile. Initially I had no idea what kind of plants I would get. The red cherry is probably a hybrid of others I had or sprouted from a grocery store tomato. The shape and taste is not exactly like anything I had growing originally.

looks great, I planted cabbage, radishes, cauliflower, brussel sprouts and broccoli. The deer ate the first go around so my second planting is a couple of inches tall.
