Spring into Fall Gardening Preparation
With Spring ending and your vegetables soon to be harvested, and the extreme Texas heat about to restrict what we can plant, it’s time to start preparing for Texas’s second growing season: Fall. The end of Spring is a great time to focus on what actions to take and what to grow as South Texas transitions from the heat of summer to the cooler temperatures of Fall. Fall is truly one of the most optimum times for Texans to have the best of both worlds with early heat, shorter days, and cooler temperatures. As many Texans say, “Fall is for Planting”! So, enjoy some recommendations on how to Spring into Fall Gardening Preparation.

Butch and his wife Cassandra, also retired from the Air Force, have two sons and six grandchildren who live in Texas, and they enjoy spending time with them. He applied and became Master Gardener in 2019 (class 63) after a trip to Israel where he marveled at how they leveraged technology and water use to grow vegetables in a very tough environment.
