| I just dig another parcel and would like to fill it in. What should I plant? I know some of the root vege, like carrot and beets should be ok. But I do not think they would do well in my regular soil. Too late for winter squash? Deer resistance is strongly preferred. |

| I planted Brussels Sprouts and Broccoli last weekend in your zone... Too late for winter squash, probably could squeeze in a summer squash. |
|
| Deer would munch most of the things from cabbage family. |
|
| I think deer would munch on almost anything in the veggie garden.... |
|
| No. Deer never touch my Kabocha, japanese pumpkins. I saw footprints near the plants, but nothing was touched. Even the watermelon was not touched. Basil and chives are left alone. I assume the case with most herbs. |
|
| I did say "almost".... I have kept them out of my garden in a heavy deer area with fencing, but in the winter they get crazed and I have little doubt would jump my fence without blinking, right now they have plenty else to eat... I'm sure someone else will have some suggestions. |
