Here in the high altitude Rocky Mountains at 8.500 ft elevation the summer is short and I have only had luck with cold weather crops like potatoes, turnips and collard greens.
I am doing 4 types of potatoes...Pontiac Red, Yukon Gold, Russet and White Superior. I also have summer squash and tomatoes still indoors. The potatoes are off to a slow start due to cold weather. The forecast was not bad, but the actual weather was bad with snow and temps down to 23F after I planted potatoes 6 weeks ago. I have been digging up a few and none had frozen and turned to mush. This week has been warmer and I am seeing some growth. on the chits I dig up.
I got sweet potato slips from Gurneys about a month ago, but it was much to cold to plant so I put them into jars of water indoors and they seem to be doing well so far. I am having problems with weather forecasts that often say overnight temps will be in the 40’s, but my indoor/outdoor thermometer shows lows in the 20’s and we have snow or frost in the morning.
Could you put me on your ping list? Thanks.
