Gardening Methods

Is it to late to plant a garden in south Louisiana?

I would like to plant tomatoes,cucumbers,squash,and banana peppers.Should I plant in direct sunlight or 50/50 sun and shade?What about okra and turnip greens?

The farmers almanac says that for June:
23-24 Favorable for planting peas, beans, tomatoes and other fall crops bearing aboveground. Sow grains and forage crops. Plant flowers.

25-26-27 Extra good for planting fall lettuce, cabbage, cauliflower, collards and other leafy vegetables. All aboveground crops planted now will do well. Plant seedbeds also.

30 Plant late beets, potatoes, onions, carrots and other root crops.

You still have time. If you need more info then go to www.farmersalmanac.com.
You can plant in the sun. Water after sunset so you don’t scorch the plants. I’m from Coushatta, Louisiana and I am planting this weekend.
