Fast-Growing Crops for Fall Harvest

For successful fall harvests, don't forget to sow mid-season! The key to a bountiful vegetable garden is succession sowing. As some spring-sown plants reach their maturity, sow or intercrop plants in their place; this way, you'll make the most of the growing season and have a fabulous-looking garden. Note: For fall-harvested crops that are sown in mid-summer or later, add two weeks to the "days to maturity" number listed on your seed packet. This "fall factor" calculation accounts for the waning daylight hours. Browse our favorite quick-growing fall-harvested crops below!
