Garden Shade Cover


In case anyone is wondering how to get an early jump on some fall veggies try to offer some shade in those hot summer days. These are my shade covers that I made from materials I had lying around the house. It works great to give my radishes and bush beans and carrots a head start.
For more information about extending growing seasons for various crops read Square Foot Gardening. I have been really impressed with the methods he uses. They are simple and easy. Any one with even a small space and desire to see things grow will greatly benefit from this book.
