What a flurry of action there ought to be in the western garden now! Spring is planting time. No doubt your nursery plants… trees, shrubs and flowers will all be planted, by now. Early vegetables, such as lettuce, radishes, peas and onions, will already be poking their heads above the ground. It may be time now to make a second planting of galore of these vegetables, peculiarly lettuce and radishes, to insure young, tender plants coming along through the summer months. In fact, plan to plant these vegetables successively, say, at two week intervals until when it comes to July. In that way, you will have young tender radishes and fresh lettuce for salads allround the summer. Which are you going to choose… head lettuce or leaf lettuce? If you are in a section where the summer becomes hot, start out with head lettuce for the early crop, so that it heads out before hot weather sets in. If you have a little greenhouse, you may have started a lot of head lettuce early and grown it as a transplant crop. That’s a good way to get lettuce to head before the hot weather sets in. For the summer crop in the hot section, leaf lettuce is much more satisfactory. New varieties are improvements on older varieties since they show less tendency to bolt or send up seed stalks than older varieties. They stand heat better. In the higher altitudes and mountain sections, head lettuce may be grown successfully, even for the duration of the summer months. Don’t set out warm season vegetables until after the risk of frost is past but you may get started now with your terraced garden ideas. This date will vary in dissimilar localities in this region. It may be around the middle of May in the earliest division of the region until closely near mid-June in the higher divisions at the uttermost west end of the region. Warm-season vegetables cover a wide range of dissimilar kinds. They include members of the Cucurbit family such as cucumbers, squash and pumpkins; members of the Nightshade family such as tomatoes, eggplants and peppers, beans and others. A number of these are transplanted into the garden, even though in more southerly divisions a great deal of of them may be seeded directly out of doors. Some cool season crops may be transplanted at this time also. These include celery, cabbage, caulifiower, broccoli and Brussels sprouts. |
