season extension

Jan 10, 2011 09:59

this time of the year I always kick myself for not researching season extending techniques. I do put a row cover over my spinach and kale, but that only seems to work until December or the first heavy snowfall (whichever comes first).

Since winter = too much time indoors and planning, I've been looking for some proven techniques in colder climates. Has anyone read The Winter Harvest Handbook: Year Round Vegetable Production Using Deep Organic Techniques and Unheated Greenhouses but Eliot Coleman? He's written several books on the subject

or if anyone has other book or technique suggestions, I'm all ears!

I'm on the border of zone 5 and 6. I know some of you are in this zone and colder, so have at it!

zone: usda 5, season extension
