<p><i>Answer by reynwater</i><br/>You&#8217;ll need lots of space and artificial lighting.  Forget trying to grow apples indoors.</p>

<p><strong><i>Question by Randy S</i>: How do I grow vegetables &#038; fruits Michigan?</strong><br />
How do I grow vegetables &#038; fruits Michigan? What kind are possible to grow here? when should I sow &#038; reap? What makes a successful orchard? Any simple solution books? Thanks.</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by juncogirl3</i><br/>Great question.  I live in Northern Michigan and got my vegetables and fruits zapped by the poor weather this year.  A very late hard freeze took out all my apples and pears.  The cold nights caused my tomatoes to not ripen until the middle of September.  So, your question depends alot upon where you live in Michigan.  I am not in the Upper Pen but about 100 miles south and just about any vegetable can be grown with great success.  The only hitch here is that I need short season, cold hardy varieties of what I want to grow.  Asparagus does well as do beans, carrots and just about any other veggie or fruit.  Michigan is blessed with a sandy loam soil that is really conducive to growing food.  Here in the North we also do well with cherry and apple and blueberries.  So to sum up, your questions have alot to do with your location in Michigan.  Our start date here for putting out plants in June 1 because of our chance of late spring frosts.  The farther south you go in Michigan, the earlier the start dates.</p>

How do I grow vegetables &#038; fruits Michigan? What kind are possible to grow here? when should I sow &#038; reap? What makes a successful orchard? Any simple solution books? Thanks.</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by juncogirl3</i><br/>Great question.  I live in Northern Michigan and got my vegetables and fruits zapped by the poor weather this year.  A very late hard freeze took out all my apples and pears.  The cold nights caused my tomatoes to not ripen until the middle of September.  So, your question depends alot upon where you live in Michigan.  I am not in the Upper Pen but about 100 miles south and just about any vegetable can be grown with great success.  The only hitch here is that I need short season, cold hardy varieties of what I want to grow.  Asparagus does well as do beans, carrots and just about any other veggie or fruit.  Michigan is blessed with a sandy loam soil that is really conducive to growing food.  Here in the North we also do well with cherry and apple and blueberries.  So to sum up, your questions have alot to do with your location in Michigan.  Our start date here for putting out plants in June 1 because of our chance of late spring frosts.  The farther south you go in Michigan, the earlier the start dates.</p>
