That may even be
zone 8. It is hard to say if you are too late. If you are not planning on putting too much money into this project (like in live plants), if you are using
seeds then it could be a very fun experiment for you.
I live in a different climate so my experience is a little different than some. So I hope someone comes along with better advice for you after I'm finished messing you up.
These are your full sun/warm weather crops:
5 types of tomatoes
2 typed of bell
peppers2 Beans
Basil
Eggplant
Okra
And these are your cooler weather crops that you may be able to start right now outdoors.
Broccoli
Cauliflower
Kale
Spinach
Swish chard
Sweet Peas
Winter Butternut Squash
Mixed Lettuce
Carrots
Leek
And I'm not sure about this one, Anna Swartz Squash.
My basic rule of thumb is if your nursery or Home Depot have the plants out for sale it is time to plant out very soon. I know many are starting their tomato
seeds indoors for planting out later right now.
I hope someone a little more knowledgeable comes along soon about which planter would be best for which plant. I live in a climate where i put my tomatoes in part shade for part of the day so they won't sunburn. Or I have built shade cloth 'roofs' over them to keep out the midday scorch.
But if you use the Google custom search box at the top of each page and put in your desired plant you may find a lot of useful info from all over this site.
