fall garden in houston

hi everyone. this fall i plan on having a vegetable garden and trying some unusual things like quinoa and basically lots of cover crops mixed with edibles. so my question is when would i start planting things like wheat, quinoa, clover, poppies, and onions? i have seed for hard red winter wheat and white sonora, multi-hued quinoa, crimson clover, flanders poppy, and red creole onions. i also want to grow non-dormant alfalfa, salad greens, beans, broccoli, and alpine strawberries. i also have a few more questions, like will the crimson clover be able to handle some rather heavy soil? and my plan with the strawberries is to shade them with tall plants like sorghum in the summer. will this work? and also when should i start artichokes for a houston garden? i picked out a purple variety that is heat tolerant from baker creek. anyways, thanks everyone
