Leafy Asian Greens of all varieties - EXPERIMENT! We love to grow at least a dozen
Asian greens and they're all so rich in taste and high in nutrients. Tokyo Bekana, Red or
Summerfest, Komatsuna, Vitamin Green, Shiro, Flamingo.
Kale and our favorite variety is Toscano
Swiss Chard - red or multi-colored

We like the taste and longer season of blooming and tomatoes that in determinate tomatoes
provide (instead of determinate), but you must very vigilant about pruning back the vines
of the indeterminate plant or they will overtake your farm with foliage so repeat after me,
“I promise to prune, prune, prune.”
Mustard Plants - Red Mustard, Green Wave Mustard (tastes like wasabi). These plants
grow large and luscious and delicious.
Peppers - Green peppers, banana peppers, hot chili and jalapeno peppers. Peppers do NOT
grow quickly nor do they bloom quickly or produce peppers quickly, so be prepared for
themtostayintheGrowTableforseveralmonths.Theygrowfasterinthesummermonths.
If you have patience, you'll enjoy growing peppers. If not, plant quickly growing plants
like greens.
Green beans - We enjoy all varieties of green beans but don't plant too many because their
vines grow 20' to 30' long.
ALWAYS BE PLANTING: A.B.P . - Your new mantra

OASIS PRIOR TO PLANTING YOUR SEEDS (Photo 3).
