I wish you much success in your planting, it is not where my gifts lie. :)

I can raise tomatoes and raspberries with a reasonable amount of success, but in this particular soil and climate I've learned not to waste my time on snow peas, purple bush beans, multi-colored carrots, or repeated attempts at establishing a rhubarb patch, because none of those have survived the heat and/or the density of the clay soil in previous years.

I talk a good game, but I've learned to limit my risk!

But that's part of it! Know what grows well and concentrate on those things.

Also, tomatoes and raspberries are two things I really like fresh but can't stand to pay outrageous supermarket prices for!
