Your fall seeding calendar shows the last planting date, correct me if I am wrong. Can you add another column that shows the earliest planting date. This will be critical for sticking to your advice of keep planting.
@farmtablewest5991Күн бұрын
Yes. I have full annual schedules in my Gardening course. The fall calendar is not mine it's from Johnnies. To my knowledge nobody has made the annual version like I have and I think the reason is its really hard. But basically you just need to combine the spring and fall planting calendars for your climate and you'll have the full year.

Always get something useful out of your fine expanations, Zack. Thanks! One thing important is, so you say anyway, that it only took you a few years to get it all growing. People ought not gloss over that though. A year or two is a long time to be hungry while you try to figure out how to grow what you eat. Better to figure out growing food while there are reliable alternatives in the event it happens that there aren’t. This was true during WWII and evident during that supply chan lockdown. think people need to hear that. Not at all sure you agree. Also, wondering if you’ve experimented with any perrennials? Ma Nature can maximize a grow into whatever the current season gives you with perrenials and save you planting time. Daubenton’s Kale could be a good one in your battery house, and might work in a high tunnel with enough covers? Said to be hardy to -15C, a plant lasts UP TO 5 years, in France and UK they are harvested almost year round and, as you know, kale is as desirable in a market garden as in a kitchen garden. If you could make that kale work I know It would be worth a try here. Hard to find though and mainly sold as cuttings because rarely flowers. I see it on ebay but maybe you would know a trusted supplier?

It does take time to be able to grow a wide variety successfully. But there's a ton of crops you can easily grow your first year if you set up No Dig and watch a ton of my videos on crop selection. It takes years to be a master and I'm not even close to a master. Plus I'm talking about growing in a garden at home in this video. It took 4 years to build this farm but a farm is much different than a garden.

Have you tried growing the bolting ones in the shade? Do you have trees on your farm? Since seasonal trees start out bare in the cold spring, fill out when the weather warms up and lose their leaves as it cools down the plants can get the sun when they need it but get shade when its hot.

I did this with raising livestock (pigs, sheep, chickens, turkeys, and Muscovy Ducks). Paid off in spades as we hit the ground running. Now we're going to grow feed for animals, so we're learning all over again. KZbin is a huge resource, with teaching from people like Curtis, yourself, and others like you. If the planting is half as successful as we hope, we should feed ourselves veggies ( to go with the meat) and reduce our feed cost by at least 50%.
