What should I plant?

ok nobody cares
but I have eggplant[old plant], basil[volunteer plants] rosemary[new transplant], sage[seeds haven't come up prob won't]
tomatoes[from spring coming back after summer baking temps], lots of different peppers, bell peppers[transplants
okras, peas, and green beans [all seeds coming up] and radish, lettuce and spinach[radishes up, lettuce and spinach old seeds I think so..] and one big pot full of turnips coming up from seed, and another pot with fingerling sweet potatoes planted a long time ago, hopefully big enough by thanksgiving to eat.
Hope it continues to cool off so my water bill won't be too big.

My garden is a sad state currently, but somehow still producing? It's completely full of weeds! I got a few tomatoes yesterday from the one cherry tomato plant that survived my blight and from one of the tomato plants I added in a container back in August. I've got a tiny eggplant and a poblano pepper growing, and some random green beans. And lots and lots of nice big carrots, which are the only thing that doesn't seem to mind my abject neglect due to two small kids and crappy summer weather and crazy fast growing weeds. I do want to plant garlic when it gets closer to winter.

Fall weather here plus we’ve been in a drought since the start of August. Things are pretty much done with the exception of a handful of late blooming flowers like aster. It was a weird season for veggies, even before we officially enter drought territory. I didn’t get as many tomatoes and cucumbers as last year and the plants grew well but didn’t produce anything until super late.

I have jumped on the minimal garden cleanup bandwagon. I’m leaving most of the flower garden up and will be raking leaves into the hedge row and designated “wild spots” in hopes of providing winter habitat for insects and helping out the birds. The goldfinches are loving the seeds from the dead flowers.
