Finally the temps have cooled off here. I'm going to try to start my veggie garden and plan on doing some flower gardening also. I have so much energy now! Does anyone have any Florida gardening tips.

I have some tomato seedlings growing, they are about 12". Peppers are about 6".
All new to this FL gardening, from MD. I will eventually get the hang of it.
Thanks for the advice!!!!

I am in Jacksonville... I looked you up on a map and thought how could we be in the same ag zone.... Well we are!
I believe most of the winter crops in our area need to be in by early September. I have not tried planting this late in the season.
You should be looking ahead to March 1 as this will be the spring planting date. If you are sowing seeds inside, think January 15th.
Good luck!

Your best bet for 'customized' Florida gardening info is to check your library or the 'cooperative extension agency' in your county. Check the phone book. Also the U of F probably has info.
