I plant them in the fall and then harvest in the early summer. During that time I trim and use the greens in cooking. I've never had success with potatoes but I'm doing a lot of research this year. I noticed you had a pair of sunglasses in your picture and thought, "That's where I've gone wrong! I'm supposed to plant potatoes with a pair of sunglasses."

I'm glad that we have a similar gardening season, I will be following along for sure. I used to grow great "Copra" onions in a much colder area, zone 2, but for some reason, can't seem to grow onions here. But mysteries are fun in a way, too.

I moved here from a little further south, and still don't quite have my timing right, even after 7 years, even using various charts and guides from the extension office. My garlic is going well, and I have started my onions--first time from seeds.<br />Would you recommend trimming the garlic to help it bulb?Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07281951290036529118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-41881857576382071812014-01-19T18:41:48.770-06:002014-01-19T18:41:48.770-06:00Love that I am closer to your area band can try wh...Love that I am closer to your area band can try what works for you.

I'll be growing my own veg for the first time this year in what I think is a climate similar to yours, so this is so helpful. Not sure if I'll be able to find the same varieties, but it's helpful to know what to look for. Looks like I need to get started on my onions!

I start several different plants indoors each year, but I don't have good luck with onion seeds. I've never grown English Peas, have you tried Frosty Peas? They are a very heavy producer and have a wonderful flavor, much better than anything you find at the grocery store. Yes I have trouble with pesky like caterpillars on the broccoli and am always afraid I'll miss one and it will end up on someone's plate. I enjoy your blog very much. Hopefully you will continue posting about what you plant each year, including flowers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603192921512857639.post-53775333389802779242014-01-14T07:53:11.508-06:002014-01-14T07:53:11.508-06:00Was it a little green caterpillar?

One thing I would really like to be able to do is grow onions. I have yet to grow a good crop.
