Garden Harvest

Our first broccoli of the year!




We didn't plant many broccoli plants but the few we have are doing well. This one was ready to harvest and another will be ready soon! We also got a pickling cucumber and while I was out I gathered eggs as well.

Garden Check Up

The garden is doing well. I have some white spots on some of my cucumbers and pumpkins but the majority still look ok. I will have to look up what it is but I'm wondering if it's powdery mildew. I have trained my acorn squash up my tomato trellis. I didn't get a trellis put up this year for my viney plants but next year at a minimum I'd like to put one up for the cucumbers. We will see how this squash does and decide later if I should include it as well. I would need to buy a few more t-posts but we have some old calf fencing panels laying around that would be perfect. My tomato jungle is still growing like crazy, I'm going to have to tie it up again soon. Some of the plants are taller than me! The second planting of beans is producing now and the yellow ones are starting to ripen. I foresee lots of picking this weekend. My regular cucumbers have managed to survive the invasion of the pumpkin plants and I will soon have some big enough to eat!...

Fall Garden Prep

My lettuce was bolting so I pulled it up and tilled the area so I can hopefully do another planting before it gets too cold. It would be nice to have some fall lettuce and spinach. If we get any early frost warnings covering the plants should work as long as it's not a hard frost. I've got it all ready to go I just need to get out there and plant it!

Today's Garden Harvest

Image
Today I gathered some leaf lettuce, radishes and a few beets to send over to the inlaws. They don't keep a garden so they are happy to take some. I didn't think to snap a photo until I had it all ready to send over though. I also gathered a few beets to include with the carrots and potatoes in with the roast beef last night for dinner. It was nice to have some garden fresh beets again.
