Part 5/7:
Cabbage: Start seeds in trays and transplant out as needed. Cabbage thrives in rich, well-drained soil with adequate spacing to promote air circulation.
Beets: Unlike other plants, consider sowing multiple seeds per hole for a cluster crop.
Carrots: October is perfect for planting rainbow carrots, which thrive with consistent moisture and can be spread across the garden for continuous harvests.
