Broad Beans (Haba)
Sow directly into the ground at a depth of 5-8 cm. The current 15.7°C average is optimal for germination before winter.
Spinach (Espinaca)
Sow in rows 30 cm apart. Thin seedlings to 10 cm once established.
Garlic (Ajo)
Plant individual cloves pointed end up, 5 cm deep and 15 cm apart in well-drained soil.
Radish (Rábano)
Sow small batches every 10 days for a continuous autumn harvest.
Peas (Guisante)
Provide support structures or trellis at the time of sowing for climbing varieties.
Arugula (Rúcula)
Sow shallowly and harvest cut-and-come-again style.
Onion (Cebolla)
Sow in seedbeds now to transplant out in late winter, or sow directly for green onions.

Cabbage (Repollo)
Transplant seedlings with 4-6 true leaves. Firm the soil well around the roots to protect against wind.
Broccoli (Brócoli)
Space plants 50 cm apart to allow for large head development.
Leek (Puerro)

Space seedlings 30-40 cm apart. Harvest outer leaves first to encourage continuous growth.
Tasks
Monthly tasks
Clear out spent summer crops (tomato, pepper vines) to prevent pest and disease carryover. Apply a thick layer of organic mulch (straw or compost) to warm-season beds to protect soil structure from heavy autumn rains. Prepare frost protection structures, such as low tunnels or fleece, for tender winter greens ahead of November's temperature drops.
