My first frost date is November 15, and we don't get hard freezes here until mid-december to the end of february. With row covers I can grow lettuce all winter.

Do you think I have time to plant another crop of corn?

Any suggestions for the fall crops once my summer crops finish out (which they're starting to do?

I'm just a little warmer than you over here in Sacramento, but I'm still planning to plant a second corn crop. You've got 4 months before your first frost and there are lots of corn varieties than mature in less than 3.

As for other fall crops, I try to get a good fall harvest of broccoli and peas. And lettuce, mustard, parsnips, and mizuna grow well for me all winter.
