I recently heard on a podcast, folks talking about planting Brassicas early- like in June, in order to have a longer growing season. I believe this was in a northern area.
I am in Kentucky- Zone 7a and am wondering if I can pull something like this off, in order to allow for more growing time. Lately it’s been getting so dry in August and September here in Western KY that my plots have struggled.
I’m wondering if getting these established earlier will help them if it gets dry again in August September, or if it will be a waste. I’m also concerned about weeds.
I’m curious as to any thoughts on this- specifically in my area. I’ve read some posts on here, but not specifically to my area as far as I can tell.
My ultimate goal is to have a food source sooner- and the brassicas more well developed.
