Hey again tk,

In the past my Fall crop is never as productive as my Spring crop with tomatoes, cucumbers, corn, okra but other veggies have been about the same. When I say not as productive take the tomatoes, in the Spring those plants will produce very good until around mid / late July and then they will slow down to about half of the previous harvest. However many of my tomatoes will continue to produce some even through August. I normally just pull them up and get that area ready for the Fall plants. By the way these are Celebrity Tomatoes I'm talking about which I plant every year.

This year I started my Fall planting on 08/16 and had everything in the ground by 08/23 except for potatoes, those will be planted the end of September.
