Planting Zone-September To Dos

I just found out that I am in Zone 6. Interesting.

According to the Burpee website, it is time to plant lettuce, radish, spinach, beets, broccoli, cabbage, garlic, blueberry, raspberry and grapes.

Since nothing is ready for all those things to be planted yet, we are either going to have to take a risk in planting them late (next month is supposed to be the "last chance") or have to wait until next September.

I figure that even if we bust our asses getting the yard cleaned out and the beds built, the dirt still won't be ready to plant anything in. I would rather do all this the right way (even if it means missing out until next year) instead of rushing around and doing it wrong just to get it in the ground this year.
