We missed frosty

Yes, the full moon has come and gone and down by the lake frosty by-passed us, however 5 miles away from the lake frosty hit with a vengenance, all is gone! So if you did get frosty, it may be time to remove your carrots, they should be sweetened by the frost. It is also time to pull all dead items from the garden, course it takes much more for weeds to succumb to frost, but pull them also. Bag these items and take them to the dump. If you have a tiller, you can till the garden area that didn't survive, and if you like garlic, plant them now for next year. In the Spring you will see the new growth, make sure there are not weeds around them, and put some compost or fertilizer around them. It is also time if you love flowers to do your planting or transplanting. From here on out there should be enough natural water to sustain them, but if we do get a dry spell, use the sprinkler. Happy fall gardening!
