Plantings for a Fall Harvest
29 07 2007I cleared out the cucumber plants today. I harvested another 10 or so before I pulled them out. There’s no point continuing to harvest the rest of the year. I can’t handle the amount I have now! My sister in law also came over to pick up some cucumbers. She’s going to make some Bread and Butter pickles using the same recipe as I did earlier in the week. Earlier in the week I pulled out the corn as they had finished producing. So I basically had both of the 4×8 raised beds open for planting except for the butter nut squash and a couple tomato plants. I added some compost and worm castings to the beds and planted the following:
| Variety | Germ | Maturity | Expected Harvest | Company |
| Tendergreen Bush Bean (Heirloom) | 6-14 | 55-60 | Sep 29th | Seeds Of Change |
| Radish (Champion) | 4-7 | 28 | Aug 29th | Ferry Morse |
| Green Onion (Evergreen Bunching) | 10-12 | 60 | Sep 29th | Ferry Morse |
| Peas (Alaska) | 8-12 | 58 | Sep 29th | Ferry Morse |
| Calabrese Broccoli (Heirloom) | 3-10 | 60-90 | Oct 15th | Ferry Morse |
| Lettuce (Grand Rapids) | 7-10 | 45 | Sep 15th | Ferry Morse |
| Tomato (Beefsteak) [Organic] | 7-10 | 80 | Oct 15th | Ferry Morse |
Average First Frost is Oct 14th
