what would you like to know? I have a 1500sqr ft garden down here in the south. Im getting ready now for my fall garden. I can tell you with mustard and turnip greens they are best tasting after a good frost. Carrots will produce better in sandy soil. Let me know if you have any certain questions ill help as much as i can.

There was a post on gardening a while back (I'm sure you can find it in the search) that was about summer gardening, which I found immensely helpful for gardening in the limited space of a raised bed. Hopefully our experienced gardeners will chime in and share what they know about winter gardening.

I had considered using my leftover window sheeting (clear plastic) as the covering for the hoops in order to maximize sunlight and heat. Since I have a fenced-in, teeny-weeny backyard, I'm hoping the plastic won't prove to be too aerodynamic.
