My Garden Is Confused!!

I have been swamped at work, so I haven't been able to tend to the garden as myopically as I usually do.  ;-0,  I had last sunday, October 13, 2013 off, and I spent the day in harvest bliss.  

Luckily I have an automated watering system that kept things alive through our seasonally hot daytime weather.  I have always believed in taking the advice of  "the experts" and then pushing the boundaries. (if you don't learn where the boundaries are, how can you push them?)  So I plant seeds much earlier then I should, like tomatoes and other heat lovers in March rather than waiting for May, and if they don't take, so what just plant again :-).  This year I decided to go ahead and plant a semi heat lover in august knowing that some of our hottest days were likely coming.  I planted GREEN BEANS from seed in august!!! hahahahaha! At this same time I planted cool weather loving produce like: beets, chard, kale, peas, lettuces, bok choy, and collard greens.  

In the mean time my tomatoes, peppers, cucumber, cantaloupe and squash were finally loving the heat!!

So this last sunday, weeks after planting etc. I went out to a harvest of "seasonal" confusion.  I picked:
(heat lovers) roma tomatoes, and 3 types of "beefcake" tomatoes, 3 types of peppers, cucumber, lemons, limes, cantaloupe, apples, and GREEN BEANS!!!! (enough green beens for dinner for 3)
and:
(cool season crops) kale, chard, beets, bok choy, lettuce(s) and "winter squashes acorn and turban (called winter squashes because they ripen in late summer/fall and "overwinter" in cool storage lasting months for use in the cold months without fresh veggies)
so as you can imagine, my garden is wondering what is "in season"now
Love it!!
