We put our spring garden yesterday. Rented a garden tiller, tilled thoroughly, then tilled manure compost in and then topped it with porous fabric for weed control. Already have Tomato, okra, eggplant and green bell pepper plants in.
Green pepper, okra and tomatoes (for cooking purposes), are incredibly easy to freeze. We’ll be adding onion sets, yellow squash, cucumbers and jalapeno peppers soon. We also plan to have a fall garden, since you can do that in Florida.
I'm so jealous, it's going to be a while before I can get those in the ground. Of course I'm quite a bit north of you :)
The yellow squash and jalapenos also freeze very well.
Good for you, I am so glad your garden is going in, sounds like wise moves you have made.
You must have about the same growing zone as we do here, cold and hot.
The old timers told me when I moved to Arizona that it would always freeze, the month that Easter was in and we had snow a week ago, an inch or so.
Maybe it is over for this winter.
