Harvest Moon

I finally built a small raised garden this summer (complete with drip irrigation) and planted on the harvest moon (full moon on the autumnal equinox) for the first time. I was hesitant to do so b/c it was still pretty hot and humid. However, the garden has done really well. I think nearly every seed I planted has come up and the plants are thriving. The peas, cucumbers and melons have been particularly happy. I'd encourage everyone to try it next year....it's more than an old wives' tale.

  1. I'm interested to see how everything turns out. I'm only doing tomatoes...in pots. I've had such poor luck with veggies...I'm scared to try again.
