Plant it, the variety's you have chosen should do fine regardless of the moon phase. I have pretty much the same as you in the ground now, and more radishs & lettuce go in tomorrow.

Hi bantamboy93,

Not sure if you have ever used it, ot not, but I find the Farmers Almanac most helpful with planning my planting schedule and other gardening chores.

Hope this is some help!

Well no planting today anyways. It came through a storm and so now the ground is soaked through. Maybe this weekend if i have time.

I planted spinach today. I am planting bok choy, snow peas, and cauliflower tomorrow. I am about a month behind, but it's been a rough month.

ETA: Here is what I use for a planting guide: http://www.farmersalmanac.com/calendar/gardening/

Planted my garden this afternoon. 2 rows of mustard, 2 rows of radishes(mainly for bug repellant), 1 row of turnips and 1 row of collards. I can't wait!

I'm getting ready to plant kale, snap peas, radish, mustard, Turnips, and different lettuce. I already have arugula, chard, broccoli. I'm waiting for the tomato bed to slow as well as my sweet peppers. Then carrots, beets and what ever else I can squeeze in. This winter red kale is my fave! It is great in soups, as chips(google kale chips) saute with garlic! I have found it the best winter green ever. Not bitter and grows like a weed all winter long and gets sweet after a frost!

Ooooh, I need to get some seeds for kale! I had kale for the first time about 3 months ago, and I'm TOTALLY hooked.

This is one of my favorite things to do with kale, and I make them at least a couple of times a week for guilt-free afternoon snacking while I'm working at my desk.

I only use olive oil salt and maybe some lemon for kale chips. This is a yummy way to cook broccoli also! Google kale nutritional value. The stuff is awesome!
