*Musculun Mix Lettuce- I love the variety. You do not have to eat it small. I enjoy letting them get big and have all of the different heads of things.
Early Sweet Sugar Pie Pumpkin- I had a lot of these. I usually do not have pumpkin over flow.
*Table Ace Squash- if these are the the acorn type, then they also are a very good acorn squash. i was very successful.
But again, Florida has different growing variables.
 
That's an impressive list! :thumbsup I like to do that too...post here to remember, as a journal, what I did each year.

There's quite a few things on your list that I've grown, but here are a few that were worthy of comment...

Marconi peppers...my very favorite sweet, we eat 'em like candy.
Mucho Nacho...heavy yielder of big, glossy jalapenos. You'll be really happy with this variety.
Hungarian Wax...when you have them coming out your ears this summer, try this recipe, big hit at picnics.
Delicious...one of my favorite tomatoes, good for slicing or canning
Homemade Pickles...good choice, productive
Aunt Molly's ground cherry...one or two plants is plenty! They reseed easily too.
 
I'd say the only "problem" you have is that you might run out of garden space! That is quite a list!
 
Looks like my list, only just the tomatoes. I do love the Marconis, and the habaneros & aji were good, but took a LONG time to get going. I'm growing old Germans & red San Marzanos for the first time this year.
 
So how many acres is this garden? Mine is 70' by 40' and couldn't even start to get that many in mine.
 
Hehe. I have a lot on my list, but I don't plant a lot of each. I have a few different gardens- it totals probably about 1 acre? They are divided into sections- one for tomatoes/peppers/sunflowers, one for vining vegetables and fruits, and one for trellised things and onions/potatoes. I also have a couple raised beds for cold weather veggies and plan on planting my super hots in pots or a raised bed with wheels so I can move it in the garage when the nights get colder. Thank you for all the input on your past experiences with some of these!
