In the Vegetable Garden — Mid-April is the time
to set out broccoli, cabbage,
cauliflower, kohlrabi, Swiss
chard, radicchio, and Brussels sprouts plants. Be sure
to
harden them off first. Rotate your vegetable crop
plantings each year by planting each variety of
vegetable in a different part of your garden than you
did last year. This will minimize repeated problems with
disease and insects.
Get a Jump on the Season — Enjoy an earlier
growing season by four weeks by setting out Season
Starter plant protectors in April. You can set tomatoes
and pepper plants inside them ten days after initial
setup of your Season Starter. The setup period allows
the soil beneath the solar shelters to warm to a
temperature suitable
for plant growth.
