Just started seeds in trays for my fall garden 6 days ago. Purple Sprouting Broccoli, Henderson's Charleston Wakefield Cabbage, Red Acre Cabbage, Georgia Collards, Batavian Full Heart Endive, Russian Red Kale, and Early Purple Vienna Kohlrabi seeds all germinated within 3-4 days. No sign yet of my Upland Cress Barbbarea verna, known in the south as Creasy Greens. I also started 3 varieties of Lettuce in trays last night.
I will probably plant other crops direct in the garden in a week or two ( Wild Arugula, Beets, Carrots, Radishs, Spinich, Swiss Chard, and Turnips). I'm also going to try and sneak a late planting of fingerling Potatoes in before I plant Garlic in October.
