This is my first year to try. We bought small plants in early August and they have done well, but no fruit yet. Hopefully soon!

We've not had much luck with this in Dallas. Even when our fall plants begin flowering in August, they don't seem to set fruits until late September or early October, so fruits are usually still small and green at the first freeze. Our former east Texas farm-raised neighbor often (not always) had success with his fall crop, so sure to be some combinations of factors that improve the chances. One thing was that he fertilized aggressively; there were always a couple few day stretches each year where he smelled up the block a bit. Figured it was some sort of manure from the family farm land they leased out, but seemed to have more of a fishy smell - should have thought to ask.
