Rather than addressing the Gardens of Shame here - those that have weeds that are 6 feet tall are on the list...
Instead... the Fall planting season is rapidly passing. Yesterday, I stopped by the Big Value Garden Center, just south of Mason Ave. (
768 N. Nova Rd., Daytona Beach, FL
32114, 386-252-2534) and picked up some onion sets. They have red, yellow, and sweeet onions by the pound. A pound is $2.50 for most varieties. A pound of tiny set onions is quite a few onions. I haven't counted, but will let you know later today after I plant, as I only bought a 1/2 pound of each. They also have garlic and shallots. Outside, they had mustard greens and several other Fall crops. Big V. Garden has an good email flyer that you can sign up for at the store or check their web http://bigvaluegardencenter.com/.
If you are planning on planting for the Fall/Winter, a few good crops are: brocccoli, cabbage, kale, collards, celery, onions (will bulb later in the winter). I had cow peas until frost, but getting a bit late for planting if we have an early frost. I think we are going to have a wet November, even though it is supposed to be the dry time.
If you are not going to plant, you might consider laying down a "weed control" cover for the Fall/Winter. Of course, those on the Gardens of Shame list, need to weed first.:)))
