Column: What vegetables to grow and when to plant them on Guam
By Phoebe Wall
For the Pacific Daily News
Those who are new to gardening often don’t know what grows on Guam. It can be discouraging to plant vegetables that don’t do well and die. This doesn’t have to be the case. You don’t have to learn from the school of hard knocks — with knowledge and perseverance you can grow all sorts of veggies. Just don’t give up.
