Fall Garden ALREADY??

Hmm, I have some seed for Tuscan kale as well but forgot to plant it. I wonder if it is too late here?

I think my fall brassicas are not going to mature in time for a fall/early winter crop. The first two seedings got eaten by bugs and/or a rabbit. All three were started indoors and then taken outside for hardening off. I will have carrots and kohlrabi, both of which were direct seeded.

I haven't grown beets at this location yet, though I did grow them every year when we lived in Michigan. I never found them "easy" to grow.
