The end of the summer cottage season seems to be made for gathering another harvest of fresh herbs and even some vegetables..
These crops are not afraid of autumn cold, and the harvest will be gathered before the first frost..
Our magazine expert Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an agronomist and landscape designer, told us which vegetables can still be planted at the end of the season.
Lettuce
The deadline for planting it is 8 weeks before the onset of frost in your region. Thanks to the short daylight hours in August, it will not go into arrow.
And it is better to choose leaf lettuce for sowing at this time.
Spinach
It is better to plant this crop in a greenhouse. Spinach will have to be protected from low temperatures, and then the harvest can be collected in October.
Parsley
It grows quickly, tolerates cold weather, and the greens can be collected almost until late autumn.
Mangold
This is one of the varieties of beets, but it is valued for its tops, not its roots.
Radish
It takes 21 days for the roots to ripen, and the heat is the least. Therefore, having planted radishes at the end of August, you will definitely harvest another crop in September.
At this time, gardeners also grow kohlrabi, carrots (early maturing), kale and pak choi, as well as turnips and arugula.
