Anyone growing second crop?

Yes, we did broccoli and cabbage last year. I remember eating fresh broccoli in December and it was wonderful! This year we're doing broccoli, cabbage, spinach and kale. We also did a late planting of bush beans which are beginning to bloom now.
 
Our green beans just started to bloom this week so I hope they produce. We only had some in late spring and then they died in our horrible summer heat. Our brassicas are starting to look good. I'm really bad at keeping track of what I plant in seed pots and I planted broccoli, savoy cabbage, and brussels all at the same time so what's growing where is going to be a good surprise when they get a little bigger. I need to get my lettuce and spinach planted this week or I'll run out of time. I don't think we'll put the green house back up for another month or so. Temps are still in the upper 80's to low 90's some days. We'd just fry everything during the day.
 
we are expanding our garden right now and im already late on getting a winter crop going. i am getting some canning in this year

i've canned 24 quarts of tomatoes and 2 pints of tomatoe paste so far and dh thinks we need to do better next year :) also canned up some chicken soup


i didn't try hard enough on growing celery this year so i had to buy some to make the soup but next year the only thing i will have to buy is salt and flour. yay !!!
