Garden Planning Time

2009 was a challenging year for most home vegetable gardeners in Niagara county.  Major problems with Late Blight disease of tomatoes and unfavorable weather conditions at times affected gardening success.

One of the best ways to start planning for this year is to look at the Selected List of Vegetables Varieties For Gardeners In New York State.  It lists varieties well adapted for growing in local gardens and indicates which ones have resistance to common disease problems.  The information is generated by specialists from Cornell University with input from home gardeners throughout the state.

Planting varieties adapted and proven for your area will increase the chances of gardening success this year.
