Things winding down here in west Michigan. Still getting some tomatoes, peppers, herbs, have not dug carrots or potatoes yet. Been busy canning tomatoes, will fill a dozen or so jars with salsa tomorrow. I get a little jealous when I read some of you in warmer climates having fall gardens. As I get older each winter gets a little harder.
Yep, I get that too sometimes with respect to our more southerly FRiends. However, I fight it with my little indoor patch of produce and sunshine.
I grow a lot indoors in that little 2x6 foot area in front of my patio doors, supplemented by a full spectrum grow light.
Green peppers are the best-self fertile. A leaf of lettuce to put on a sandwhich. A little cherry tomato to go on a salad. Spinach for quiche or salad addition. Lemons for tea or fish. It all helps fight that garden envy.
The winter garden outdoors does pretty well here too under lots of cover till we get a warm day-it’s planted with cold toerant varieties of carrots, lettuce, spinache etc.
