| Maybe the answer to the question is to ask the locals? just a thought maybe if any of them speak english they can help with advice |

| Well i think the answer is to copy what they do,so far they have planted onions and garlic,and believe it or not lettice,my friend over the road gave me some about 5 weeks ago the wife put them in and guess what they are growing and the frost did not kill them but i dont know about this snow,i think they may be a gonner now

Excellent idea davshaz That's the best way to go Mike. Knowing the villagers, they will just take over and plant every inch so be prepared to load of tomatoes, peppers, cucs, onions, garlic etc etc Ginka our neighbour came down one day and planted garlic bulbs thinking she was only going to plant two or 3 split bulbs - she planted 12 rows of 30 She even came back and picked them all ready for us when we went over. One garlic bulb a week is enough for us Oddy |

| Sounds good to me,when we moved in it was summer and the babba (grandmother)had 15 rows of tomatoes,10 rows of peppers,cucumbers cant remember how many we picked,lots of marrow,and pumpkins,it was loverly,then the task of what they call com potting,where they preserve it for the winter,great fun.

| Hi Mike I know nothing about gardens and never want to [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] you only have to look at my garden in BG to see that, I have had a bit of a look round but there really isn't a lot of information about gardens in Bulgaria, but is seems that most things will grow for example.. Carrots,Potatoes,Squash,Pumpkins,Tomatoes,Peppers,Cucumbers,Cauliflower,Cabbage,Raspberries,Grapes,Strawberries,Blackberries,Runner beans,Plums,Melons,Onions,Lettuce,Garlic,Rhubarb,Walnuts,Hazelnuts,Apricots,Courgettes,Peas,Leeks,Beets,Aubergines,Sweetcorn,Sprouts,Broccoli,Parsnips,Soya beans,Haricot beans and so on...... The list goes on as for when to plant ? unfortunately there are regional climate variations in Bulgaria, what I would say is from what I remember seeing most things that are stuck in the ground will grow, my neighbor is a great one for just sticking a twig in the ground and something would grow so as said above talk to your neighbors, They will know and probably help you I will ask Ashley if he will start a Gardening section it could be very useful |

| I would either watch what the neighbors do or ask them like its was said earlier because of the different climates the planting time will be different , so its hard to say when good luck with it and look forward to seeing what you grow |
