Question by tranquil_moonlight_88: Possible to grow vegetable plants in Cape Coral, Florida outdoors?

I used to live up North on east coast. So I don't know much about sw Florida. Can veggie plants be grown sucessfully outdoors (say like in Cape Coral or St. James City), or should they be done in large pots and kept by windows under shelter? Would too many "bugs" or the bad winds or downpours destroy the veggie plants if they were done outdoors? I don't want to look like an idiot doing vegetable plants outdoors around here if it really is'nt possible to keep them alive well out there or keep them from getting broken. Vegetables like: big beef tomatoes, big bell peppers, yellow squash and eggplant.

DO YOU HAVE WARM WEATHER, DO YOU HAVE TOPSOIL IF YOU DON'T BUY SOME ,SOME TIMES YOU CAN EVEN GROW TOMATOES IN LARGE ORNAMENTAL POTS ,SAME THING WITH SPICES, EVEN HOT PEPPERS GET STARTER PLANTS MUCH BETTER THAN STARTING SEEDS , AND YOU HAVE GREAT CLIMATE, AND YOUR GARDEN CENTER SHOULD BE A FOUNTAIN OF INFORMATION, PLUS YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO PUT PLANTERS ON ROLLERS,

BEST OF LUCK
