Fall Garden 2012

I had all sorts of great stuff planned. Toscano Kale, 4 different types of carrots, broccoli, etc. Then I realized I need to replenish and "rest" the soil a little. So I planted "Green Manure". It is growing very well. I purchased the "Fall Green Manure Mix" from Johnny Seeds.

 
 
 
I have it in some spots but I'm also growing a few things. Most of which I started from seeds inside before summer was over. We had our first nasty storm, they made it through. These pictures were taken today after the storm:
 
Diablo Brussels Sprouts:
I've never grown them I hope they do well.
 
 
Kohlrabi:
I've never grown it either wish me luck! I've got the beginnings of one.
 
 
Georgia Vates Collard Greens:
We LOVE them!!
 
 
Bright Lights Swiss Chard:
Yummy!
 


I also planted seeds directly into the ground. I am not sure how they will do. I'm hoping to get tasty treats before winter.
 
Beet Sprouts:
 
 
Parsnip Sprouts:
 
 
Turnip Sprouts:
 

The Prostrate Rosemary I planted to attract pollinators (bees, etc.) is still working hard!
