Need suggestings for Winter Garden & ideas on propagation

Hi!

We just put up a hoophouse at our new home. We are located in East Texas in zone 8a.

Given that it's already fall, is there anything that I can start now that will be successful for the winter? In my last home, I usually had my winter items in the garden by the end of fall or mid September. I also thought I might try to transplant some plugs if I could find them at a nursery. I'm interested in veggies and flowers.

Any suggestions? Our hoophouse is unheated and a decent size (16x30) so I really hate for it to sit vacant all winter.

Also --- I wanted to try propagating shrubs and bushes this winter via stem cuttings. Is this a good time? What plants are best for this time of year?

THANKS!
