1. Green leafy vegetables
You can plant other green leafy vegetables such as loose-leaf lettuce, endive, spinach, chard, and lamb’s lettuce. These will grow well in the cool temperatures of fall. The emergence time ranges from 3-4 weeks for watercress and lamb’s lettuce to 4-6 weeks for chard or lettuce and chicory harvest.
