So....for the last few yrs I've been starting my Biennials and Perennials at the end of July/1st week of August for next yr indoors. Usually, that means I can start planting them out beginning the 1st week of September but this yr?
Some I think could handle the heat but the Spring blooming Stocks esp? Add in this yr's "doing" Lunar Gardening and the available planting days are less. The only veg I'd grown before and so far? Tomatoes WERE doing incredible until the Hornworms but still are nothing as close to as bad as before. While I've grown melons before this is the 1st time with Korean melons so....could it have helped? Dunno. I know it didn't mean diddly with the Green Onions, Radishes and Winter Squash. Most are dead, but this yr's been rough, even for plants used to E Tennessee Summers. Since a number of other veg were wiped out by deer, again dunno;>.
Next week I'll be heading out to HD to get some raised bed soil for the grow bags I'll be planting as soon as the night temps drop below 80F and the Moon is in the right place;>!
Cheers,
Pat
