This is my zone 8b Louisiana garden journal.
In my zone 8b garden, I have to start my fall garden in an air-conditioned shed. This video has a week-by-week update on the progress of my seedlings. This year I started 99% of my vegetables and flowers from seeds. I used an inkbird plugged into the air conditioner to regulate the temperature.
I have been harvesting my winter vegetables and leaving some plants to make seeds for later. I also took time to enjoy the flowers in bloom. Stay tuned for future updates on my tomato trellis and okra growing experiments. A final update is coming soon for the winter greenhouse tomatoes and I will try growing cantaloupes and cucumbers in the greenhouse to hopefully avoid cucumber beetles this year. The squash vines borer is back and I have been picking the eggs off my squash lately. I have been trying more organic remedies and I want to review and report my results later on.
