Anyone have any suggestions on what y'all plant this month?

I like chard, beets and the brassicas, but my Loving Bride does not.
Lettuce is about the only cool weather crop that I plant that she enjoys
so I'm wanting to diversify.

Going by the Travis County Extension calendar, I'm planting snap beans,
parsley, snap peas, and snow peas. I just got the potatoes in the
ground - a bit after 9/1, but it's been so damn hot, I put it off. I did
plant some cucs last month and they are finally coming up.


Do you have any experience with any of these? Any varieties you
particularly favor or that have worked well for you?

Perhaps I should clarify. I'm quite familiar with the Extension calendar of
course; I was hoping for a little bit more detail beyond "Peas, Garden -
September & October."

Thanks,
