Asparagus and Rhubarb can be planted from root divisions now.

Harvest parsnip, kale and brussels sprouts as buttons become firm.

Take a 3 inch piece of copper wire and poke it right through the main stem of your tomato plants to save them from blight.

Protect potatoes from blight with protective covers.

HARVEST TIME TIPS:

HARVEST TIME TIPS

"When tomato plants are at the end of season. Pull all tomatoes off and lay vine over and bury all but top 6-12 inches. Tomatoe vine will produce a second harvest" - Wanda of Albemarle, NC

"Old garden gates make ideal trellises and, believe it or not, squash and cantaloupe will climb them and bare beautiful fruit that are easy to harvest and relatively damage free" - Mary of Bunker MO

"We always plant more than we can use, so we can take our excess to our community's soup kitchen for the poor and homeless, who otherwise wouldn't get fresh veggies!" - Mary of Evans GA

"Make some Italian dipping oil by soaking bruised basil leaves, tarragon, sage, fennel, garlic, oregano, and/or any other herb you like in olive oil. Steep for 2 weeks. Then strain and zap in the microwave for 1 minute or so (do not boil) to kill any bacteria before using.  Great with veggie stir-fries or for use in your favorite recipe. You can use crushed peppercorns and fresh lemon peel for a lemon pepper oil, or try bruised hot peppers for a spicy pepper oil.  Use your imagination!" - Fran of Missouri
