What to plant in Galicia in September
September in Galicia marks the transition to autumn with mild average temperatures of 15.5°C and increasing rainfall of around 71.5 mm. These conditions conclude the warm-weather cropping cycle and initiate the planting of resilient cool-season vegetables, leafy greens, and brassicas ahead of wetter, colder late-autumn conditions.
