I saw a video on a NC garden and he said his garden was almost done producing in mid-July.

My Rhode Island garden is just taking off.

What is your growing season like?

Lol I live in Texas. This is the time of year I let stuff die because I hate to be outside long enough to give them enough water. Soon we will be restricted from too much watering due to dought anyhow.

That said, my tomato plant that grew out of my compost is still making tomatoes even though it's like 20 degrees too hot, and if I were growing peppers this year (which I am not) they would keep producing as long as I keep them wet. I grew a magnificent pepper forrest during the pandemic and just let it all die after I got my first COVID vaccine. Some of them even survived the 2021 snowpocalypse, but I had better things to do.

I like to call it survival season. You're not expecting anything to actually grow, you're just keeping it from dying before October
