Gardeners 'To Do List': Sept

Lots of rain so far. While planting seeds has stopped, harvesting is going to be a full time job this week.

Finally all your hard work has paid off, but not what are you going to do with all this food? Might I suggest you read my post on "Storing Your Extra Food"  Personally I like to dehydrate because to the low energy needed and the long term storage potential.

Time to harvest and eat:

• Lettuce
• Cauliflower
• Sweet Potato
• Tomato
• Eggplants
• Pepper
• Winter Squash
• Summer Squash
• Potatos
• Cucumber
• Melons
• Corn
• Beans

Transplant into the soil (from your starting seeds or bought from a garden store):

• Done for season

Sow seeds into the soil:

• Done for season

Start seeds in doors:

•   Done for season

You still have extra time and want to do more. (where are you getting this free time???)

• How about adding more mulch to your garden beds to help retain moister and prevent weeds?
• How about a hugelkultur garden bed?
• What about adding a automated drip irrigation system?
• How about creating a small green house?
