Garden status - end of October

Cool season plants are waiting to be harvested. After I started to spray the broccoli with Bt for cabbage worms, the broccoli has been doing amazingly well. Next year I need to grow four times as much.


I placed a wire tunnel over the Swiss chard. If a frost is predicted, I can quickly throw on a cover. I know the plants can survive a frost, but they seem to do better with a little help.


Looks like I'll have lettuce and arugula into November!


The cold frames have lettuce, arugula and scallions. The leaves on the arugula are somewhat large, but I pull the leaves off the stems and toss them into my salads.
