Vegetables to Plant in September (By Growing Zone)

September planting depends on your USDA Hardiness Zone—cooler weather crops thrive now, but timing varies.

Zones 3–5 (Cool Climates)

• Kale – Frost-tolerant, harvest into winter with protection

• Radish – Quick crop before the first hard frost

• Carrots – Sow now for sweet, late-fall roots

• Lettuce – Choose cold-hardy varieties like Winter Density

• Beets – Fast-growing for a fall harvest

Zones 6–7 (Mild Climates)

• Broccoli – Start transplants for late fall harvest

• Green Onion – Easy to grow through winter

• Cabbage – Perfect for late-season planting

• Swiss Chard – Produces until hard frost

• Potato – Plant early for small winter crop

Zones 8–10 (Warm Climates)

• Onion – Plant short-day varieties for winter harvest

• Lettuce – Continuous planting possible through winter

• Carrots – Sweeten in cooler nights

• Kale – Stays productive all winter

• Beets – Reliable from fall through early spring

Match your planting to your zone for stronger growth and longer harvests.
