| Hi all - I've been reading some conflicting info... Is it a waste (of water/fertilizer etc) for me here in North San Diego county (about 7 miles inland, so not quite as warm as true inland, but not quite as cool as coastal) to plant carrots, radish, peas or lettuce from seeds? Will it be too hot for them before they can be harvested? Or can I do it if I keep them partially shaded in the afternoon? But then they won't get full sun... I'm so confused! Thank you! |

| I'm in San Marcos. I'm not going to plant any cool crops until October. We might get May Gray and June Gloom but we might also get heat waves. I'd do tomatoes instead now. |

| Thanks! Will do! |

| You could have started them like in January -Feb as spring crop. You might try radishes because they have a short life cycle. |
