The freeze wiped out the beans, basil and pepper but everything else came through fine in my Houston vegetable garden. Even though I planted the beans in early October, I got a full crop from them. Turnips, greens and bok choi are ready for the table. Beets and carrots are coming along but are not mature yet. Plenty of lettuce and arugula. Time to plant onions and sugar snap peas this week. This year I am planting “super” sugar snaps–they are supposed to me more immune to mildew. Mildew always kills my plants but usually not until they are about through producing anyhow.
I picked the golden grapefruit before the freeze. They had pretty well changed color and after opening one found that they are ready. These grapefruit have a beautiful dark golden flesh. Newer versions of golden are often much paler.
