Good for you JShane. I enjoy my seasons and a break. But I still don't have to worry about gators, hurricanes and whatever else creepy crawlers you have down there.

This list is long, but distinguished. It's admirable what your able to produce and grow in such a difficult region for vegetables.
@Gellar i couldn't agree more. It's the trade off we get for what we don't have down here. Our fall/winter gardens are the easiest. There's no heat,humidity, disease, or bugs to battle.

I wish I had done some fall garden things. The way this fall has been it would have been good!
I had a bunch of 4” broccoli starts I should have planted in September.

I had some beet seeds that I had planted. Never came up. Then after a bunch of rain I have beets popping up. The seed laid dormant all summer.

Light frost killed off my warm-weather plants. Pulled everything out except broccoli, radishes, and carrots.
I got a pumpkin and 4-5 watermelons as well. I’m trying an internet idea this year of suspending tomato vines in my insulated garage, and pick fruit as it ripens.There are about 100 tomatoes still on there - I probably lost another 30 or so that fell off as I cut, moved, and hung the vines.

My roommate in college had a pear tree at his mom’s house. One fall we made gallons of pear wine. It turned out more like a brandy, but college kids didn’t care.
I always used to cut my asparagus patch down before winter but I'll let it go this year. Still green, straight and full of berries. I soaked the ground good a while back when it was real dry around here and things really look good for next year's crop. Definitely time for things to come to an end, though. The little 4-footed critters are making their way into the buildings. Another mouse fell victim to the Rotating Wheel of Doom and died. Also known as the blower fan in my car. Terrible vibration in it and I knew right away what it was from previous events. I just spent the last hour or so tearing the dash apart to remove the dead mouse. I even left the cabin filter out last time to remove the platform they used as a perch for a nest. Bastards. I put out more bait chunks in the building and may set some traps for extra help. SO FAR they've left my truck alone. I think.

The black cat had a half live mouse on the garage floor this morning and the cat was no where to be found. I took the mouse to the rat snake at work.
