NOTE: Your fall garden in North Texas can have even more edibles, but these should be planted in August and definitely before the end of the first week in September: Winter Squash (such as Butternut and Acorn Squash); pole beans, corn, cucumber, eggplant, okra, Irish potato, pumpkin, tomato. You can still try your luck with most of these if they are healthy transplants but seeds are not recommended.
