What, no Cali gardeners out there? ;-)

Beans, maybe, if you plant a short DTM bush variety... but no guarantees. Peas, certainly. When I gardened near Palo Alto, I planted my Fall crop of peas in August. I grew snow peas (can't remember the variety) and "Green Arrow" shelling peas.

I was going to suggest that you try this question in the California Gardening forum... but when I checked it out, there wasn't much discussion of vegetables there.

Posting in the main vegetables section or california gardening section would probably get best responses.

Here in SoCal I am just about to put in fall peas. Later in the fall I will plant favas.
