I have to agree with Huntnikk2000
You have to grow the vegetables and herbs that will grow in your area.
I woudl be senseless to fight against nature and try to grow some vegetable that will only require more care and fertilizers, and time to care for if it is not to be cultivated in your particular area.
Huntnikk2000 is also suggesting crop rotation as well as companion planting which in my book is just great.
