Here in the south we usually plant in February to harvest in early May before
the bugsfind us. The weather has been so weird that our poor blueberries have
blossomed andfrozen three times. We finally got the garden in the very end of
last month and hopeit doesn't burn up or get eaten up by the bugs before we
harvest. We usually can plant two gardens (Spring/Fall). Our fall garden some
peacocks thatwere dropped off on us ate everything green in the garden. We
tried electric fencebut it didn't work. We have a cage set up to try and trap
them. Hope to sell themat the farmers market to get rid of them. Gorgeous
birds but when they eat our food!!
