I have grown the following vegetables successfully in Central HPP without a greenhouse:
Collard greens, turnips, wong bok, bok choi, cabbage, kale, mustard greens, green beans, eggplant, zucchini, carrots, lima beans, cherry tomatoes, and okra.
Corn, yellow crook-neck squash, and regular sized tomatoes have not done well for us.
We have planted fig, papaya, jaboticaba, abiu, lychee, rambutan, mango, lime, navel orange, tangerine, and Tahitian lime fruit trees. None are more than three years old, and we are already eating limes, oranges, papayas, and figs. The others are all growing nicely, but no fruit yet. The abiu (Brazilian caramel custard fruit) is blooming right now, so we hope for fruit soon. Of course we have about 40 pineapples growing all over the place.
Cheers and happy gardening,
Jerry
