Им место под кроватью - Садовое обозрение
Тыква и кабачок не требуют каких-то особых условий для хранения. Главное, чтобы было сухо и прохладно. Желательно темно. Если в вашей квартире нет утепленного балкона или специального ящика для хранения овощей зимой, то тыква с радостью ляжет в спячку в вашей спальне. И нет для нее лучше места, чем под супружеской постелью: сухо, темно и не жарко. Впрочем, она согласится пожить и под шкафом. Главное, подальше от батареи отопления.
Условия
На хранение рекомендуется закладывать зрелые плоды, так как у них кожура со временем грубеет, тем самым предохраняя их от порчи и гниения. Лучше хранятся плоды, снятые с плодоножкой длиной 5-6 см. Обязательным условием длительного хранения является прогревание плодов на солнце в течение двух недель. Нельзя хранить тыквенные культуры в одном помещении с картофелем и корнеплодами.
Перед закладкой на хранение плоды надо осторожно очистить от земли, смазать зеленкой все царапины и потертости.
Способы
Идеальным способом хранения является специальное помещение, где поддерживается температура 5-10 градусов тепла с относительной влажностью воздуха 70-75%. Пол выстилают соломой слоем 8-10 см, раскладывают тыкву плодоножками вверх, кабачки и тыквы кладут так, чтобы они не касались друг друга. Десертные мелкие тыквы лучше хранить в ящиках, выстеленных сухим мхом.
Комнатный способ хранения прост и доступен каждому. Нужно выбрать сухое, прохладное и темное место. Это может быть кладовка или шкаф, место под кроватью. Конечно, лучше хранить в ящиках, в крайнем случае на подстилке из гофрокартона или нескольких слоев газеты, а кабачки вообще можно завернуть в газеты. Тыквы и кабачки не любят тесноты.
Часто случается, что во время хранения хвостик плода начинает мокнуть. Его следует вырезать до здоровой ткани, а срез обжечь над огнем свечи.

Plant garlic cloves.
Keep garlic well watered during dry weather.
If it's dry for long periods, the cloves will not swell and the resulting crop will have a short storage life.
‘Solent Wight’: Late summer maturing, very good for storage. Autumn Planting-Softneck Type.
‘Germidour’: Late maturing, purple skinned cloves. Spring/Autumn planting. Softneck garlic.
‘Red Duke‘ Garlic is a heritage, hardneck variety with bright white skins with fierce and spicy flavours, which are the signatures of this exotic garlic from Czech Republic; with plump purple cloves. This variety of garlic is noted for being one of the very hot and strong varieties commonly planted in the UK.
Autumn Planting-Hardneck Type.
Growth should really take off during next February and the crop will be ready for harvesting by June/July.
Hardnecks
Produce a hard flowering spike.
Cloves form around a central stem.
Varietiesinclude: Purlpe Moldovan, Lautrec Wight, Chesnok Wight, Red Czech & Red Duke Wight (new).
Plant harneck garlic types typically in the Autumn for harvest end of June - July.
Lautrec Wight suitable for planting until early Spring.
Softnecks
Produce a softer stem with no flowering spike, typically more cloves to a bulb, bunched together in tight circles.
Varieties include: Early and Extra Early Purple Wight, Albigensian Wight, Provence Wight, Picardy Wight, Iberian Wight, Tuscany Wight & Solent Wight.
Plant September to March - end of April for Picardy Wight.

Sow or plant in October
Broad beans - sow seeds of early varieties, they should overwinter and give you a crop in the following June.
Cabbages - last chance this year for transplanting spring cabbages. Plant them in ground that has been well firmed and cover with nets to protect from birds, especially pigeons.
Garlic - plant garlic cloves, as long as they are not in a waterlogged are they will overwinter. the longer they are in the ground, the bigger next years bulbs will be for harvesting.
Rhubarb -they should be entering the dormant period now, from now until March, so now is the best time to plant new sets or divide and replant old crowns.
Fruit Bushes - plant new, bare root bushes this month, allowing them time through autun to get their roots down before start of next growing season.
