Why Plant in Autumn?<\/b><\/h2>\n

There are many great reasons to plant vegetables in the autumn. The first reason is that the soil is still warm from the summer season and helps promote healthy root growth. Root growth is important for anchoring plants and vegetables and helping transport nutrients, oxygen, and water. Second, autumn weather is neither too hot nor too cold, so you can greatly reduce the effect of extreme heat or cold on newer, more vulnerable plants. Third, you can take advantage of increased rain in autumn, which will help your plants establish stronger roots before the more severe winter weather comes in. Finally, spring and summer can bring many more pests that aren\u2019t as prevalent in autumn. This will help set the stage for successful planting and enjoying of your autumn vegetables.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
