Plan
- Decide what veggies you want to plant, and how much of each.
- Create a garden plan! Use the tool linked here, or draw out your garden on paper, mapping out where each type of plant will go.
Broccoli
Broccoli is a hardy vegetable that grows best in cool temperatures. In most areas there is not enough time to grow broccoli from seeds before the weather gets too hot. Start seeds indoors or purchase transplants in a few weeks.
Cabbage
Cabbage is a hardy vegetable that grows best in cool temperatures. In most areas there is not enough time to grow cabbage from seeds before the weather gets too hot. Start seeds indoors or purchase transplants in a few weeks.
Leeks
Leeks are a hardy vegetable that grow best in cool weather. Start seeds indoors or purchase transplants in a few weeks.
Parsley
Parsley is very slow and difficult to germinate—you won’t have much luck if you just plant the seeds directly in the garden. The benefit of starting seeds indoors is that you have a really long harvesting-season for parsley! Parsley is a biennial (will grow for two years). However, it usually has to be replanted every year because it dies during the cold winter temperatures.
