Gardeners preparing for a fall harvest across West Texas now have access to Johansen Landscape & Nursery's seasonal planting support, as the Big Spring, TX nursery helps homeowners make the most of one of the region's most important vegetable-growing windows.
-- Johansen Landscape & Nursery is encouraging West Texas gardeners to begin planning their fall vegetable gardens during August, when many cool-season crops and selected warm-season vegetables should be established ahead of the region's average first frost. Alongside a wide selection of plants, the nursery's team provides guidance on crop selection, planting schedules, and soil preparation suited to local growing conditions.

The recommendation comes at a time when many gardeners mistakenly assume the growing season is coming to an end. Johansen Landscape & Nursery says the opposite is often true in West Texas, where August marks the beginning of an important planting window for a productive fall harvest. With the average first frost typically arriving around early November, gardeners have an opportunity to establish crops while warm soil temperatures continue to encourage strong root development.
"Many people think August marks the end of the gardening season," a Johansen Landscape & Nursery representative said. "In West Texas, it's often where the next harvest begins."
Preparing the garden before planting plays an important role in the success of a fall crop. After months of summer growth, garden beds often benefit from fresh compost, soil conditioning, and nutrient replenishment before new vegetables are introduced. The nursery recommends planning planting schedules around local growing conditions and selecting varieties that perform well during the transition into cooler weather, including spinach, kale, turnips, brassicas, and other vegetables suited to fall production.
Known locally as the "Plant Doctors," Johansen Landscape & Nursery helps gardeners match planting times and crop selections to the West Texas climate. The team also advises customers on soil health, irrigation, and plant care, helping both first-time and experienced gardeners make informed decisions before the growing season changes.
"Our goal is to help people choose plants that are suited to this region and give them the knowledge to grow successfully," the representative added. "Good timing is just as important as choosing the right variety."
