Garlic 02 Jan, Chris (USA - Zone 8a climate)
I live in zone 8A near Atlanta, GA. You can plant garlic here in the fall (October to December) before the ground freezes to harvest between May and July. Just in case someone was wondering - I've actually never planted garlic in the early spring as suggested here.

Chinese cabbage (also Wong bok, wong nga pak, napa cabbage) 14 Dec, Granny Sweet (USA - Zone 10b climate)
New to zone 10 gardening. Came from zone 5. Besides shade cloth, what's your best tip and best crop? Also what do you grow in a bright window? I'm going to try bush beans.

Chinese cabbage (also Wong bok, wong nga pak, napa cabbage) 16 Dec, Rebecca (USA - Zone 9b climate)
I came from zone 4, I thought that Gardening would be great. Boy was I stupid. I planted a pack of bush beans. Only 4 plants grew, ants took the rest, each pant had 2-3 beans and the plant died. I have tried with different amounts of sun and soils. Now I am happy with growing flowers. I do throw watermelon, or potatoe for the green, never got fruit. Racoons like fruit.

Asparagus 26 Nov, Vanessa Haines (USA - Zone 9b climate)
I planted asparagus seeds when my asparagus had seeds. They are now 8 inches tall, in a seeding tray outside, starting to yellow. Wondering if I dare plant them in a raised bed with full sun. The soils is fairly sandy. In the spring I had planted celery and one artichoke that has fully died off during the summer heat in metropolitan phoenix az area. Thank you for the advice ahead of time. My other option is maybe in the garage or patio with a grow light and heat lamp?

If yellowing, maybe give some fertiliser. Sandy soils dry quick so water more often. They grow a lot better in the ground but you need to look after them really well.

Garlic 04 Nov, Christina (USA - Zone 9b climate)
I noticed it says garlic is not recommended for USA zone 9b. I am in 9b central California. I plant garlic every year mid-December and harvest it mid-June. With the winter rains I don’t worry about watering it until April or May. I have not had any trouble with slugs/snails eating it (like they do with everything else in my winter garden!) Super easy to grow, everyone in zone 9b should try it!
