What can I grow in fall? All of the same plants you grew in spring, but likely better! Anything in the cabbage family–broccoli, cauliflower, kale, collards, kohlrabi, radishes, turnips, mustard, arugula, bok choy, other Asian greens, etc. etc.–plus lettuce, spinach, chard, beets, and carrots. And just as you could plant all these before the last frost in spring, you can harvest them after the first frost in autumn. But you have to plant them well ahead of that. So when do I plant them? Here’s where you have to do a little math. Somewhere on your seed packet, or in the seed catalog, there should be a number called “days to maturity.” This is how long it takes between sowing and harvest time–or, in some cases, how long between planting out a transplant and harvesting.
