It's too hot for spinach and peas in most of the country, and probably for the root vegetables as well.
It's going to hit 109 in my town today and that is way too hot to plant anything!!! If we don't have our tomatoes in by the first of April, forget about it. We plant an early spring and fall garden but nothing in the height of summer. Where does this person live who wrote this piece?
Yeah, these are definitely not all things to plant now. You could plant spinach and peas towards the end of summer for a fall harvest, but not this weekend.
Well it looks like the original list was from the UK where I would imagine they don't have super-hot summers!
hurry up and post somehing, AT needs 50 blog posts per day, it doesn't matter if its relevant to the users' lives!
Hmmm, conditions are great for planting here in northern Michigan. Certainly is relevant to many lives! Thanks for posting.
