A new season brings fresh opportunities to experiment in the garden, and fall is not an exception. After the height of summer, use a technique called succession planting to sow more vegetables and extend your growing season.

With succession planting you are able to harvest another round of veggies before the winter frost. It’s the perfect opportunity to try new varieties or make up for any spring procrastination that may have doomed leafy greens.

As an added bonus, some vegetables are more flavorful when they mature in cooler seasons. “If you plant wisely and watch the calendar, you can get tastier vegetables in the fall for those that prefer cooler temperatures,” says David Trinklein of the University of Missouri extension service.

Now is the ideal time to give your garden a second chance.
