Is it too late sow seeds outdoors for lettuce, cabbage, and other leafy vegetables

Question

I live in Northern New Jersey about an hour outside of NYC. I have seeds for lettuce, cabbage, spinach, and other leafy greens. I am putting the seeds in tomorrow, September 5. Should I just not bother or go for it?

Answer 1

You are in USDA planting zone 6. Our experts say you can plant into late summer, so I'd say go for it right away.
