Susan is growing some beautiful cabbages this year in the garden. She cut up twenty pounds for the crock, I added salt and punched and crunched. It is down in the basement now for six to eight weeks with our kraut rock pressing it down.
Here in south Georgia cabbage has to be grown in the fall and winter. Hot weather makes the leaves tougher. In the garden I have the last of the lettuce until fall, zucchini, carrots, cucumber, bell pepper, snap beans, and tomatoes. The deer ate my yellow squash, peas, Thai pepper, and okra.
I have 2 raised beds that are 4'x8'. I had 9 Better Boy tomatoes, a hand full of pole beans, and a zucchini this morning. I am seeding more peppers and peas with harvest in September and hopes of a mild October, if I read the Farmer's Almanac correctly.
