With this unseasonably warm weather for June, the garden is starting to take off!
I snapped these photos on Friday, 12 days after the last set of pictures I took.
You can see the tomato plants here have shot up.....they need cages already.
This is what they looked like 12 days earlier....
The eggplant plants are just hanging in there.....
These tomato plants are not growing as fast as the ones at the other end of the bed. Less sunlight and the soil is not as nice....
The green beans and squash/zuke plants have started coming in at the front of the house.....
And here is the end of the front bed....
The holes in the center of this shot are where the
evile chipmunks have dug up the sunflower seeds every time I replanted them, dang them!!
Something buglike has been eating on the collard plants on the right in the photo. I need to make up some soapy spray to drive them off.....those leaves are for MY MUNCHING Pleasure, not yours so bug off!lol
I guess I'll replant some of the cuke plants I need to thin out in the back bed and put them in here.
More bean plants and the salad greens spottily coming in....
Here is what the salad greens looked like 12 days earlier for comparison. You'll notice the green beans weren't 'up' yet....
The aforementioned cuke plants. #1 son sowed these and I do believe every single seed took! 40 cuke plants in the space of oh....3 feet!lol
These collard plants the bugs haven't dined on...yet!lol
And the cauliflower plants just about ready to start heading....
Here is what the collards and cauliflower looked like 12 days past....
Notice how the weeds have begun to take over too......ugh. I have a very hard time bending down and weeding this bed as it has a definite slope and my old body has a hard time keeping my balance while bending over to weed. I may need to look for some kind of weeding tool with a long handle.....I used one at the CSA we use to belong to but it's not a cheap tool.
So how is your garden growing?
Are you getting any good eats out of it yet?
