DonShirer said: Weatherman predicted frost (it didn't come) so I cleaned up the unripe fruit ending with 2 orange and 6 green tomatoes—which I'll probably have to toss since DW doesn't like fried green toms; 3 baby eggplant; and a ton of green peppers (9 bell, 14 sweet, 11 mild and 13 Jalepeno). Tomorrow I finish pulling up and trashing the tomato vines, then it's on to planning for next year. Now where did I stash those seed catalogs??

Summer is about gone. Sweet potatoes are in the barn. few straggling tomatoes, peppers and eggplants hanging on until frost. maybe one more picking of butterbeans. Brassicas are coming on, turnips and mustard are ready. Expect broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower late November. Collards, carrots and Rutabagas for New Years.

If I don't get a decent harvest next spring I will stop planting to sell and simply plant for my kitchen needs, about 50-60 cloves that will produce 10 lbs. of bulbs.
