We've had very little rain this June and our garden is ok, but it's not as great as it could be. The peas we had earlier in June were wonderful, and our tomato plants look good, since we've been watering. I just feel so bad for all the plants because it's so dry.
Not so great -- we've had a very dry spring too and some of the seeds just didn't sprout. We also cut back on number of plants this year at dh's insistence and I feel like everything is just really sparse. And one of our tomato plants got a virus and needed to be replaced, so the new small one is way behind. We're not going to get much this summer, but I plan to plant a big fall crop to make up for it.
We have fresh zucchini picked today and two cherry tomatoes are ripe! I'm waiting for my cucumbers in a couple of days so I can make pickles.
Our strawberry patch was excellent. But our tomato plants do not seem to be producing much and Sawyer keeps picking the green ones and eating them lol. The peppers are looking good. We have a bunch of cucumbers that we planted to make pickles and I can't tell yet if those are doing well.
Mine is ok. I busted my butt while pg to plant my spring crop and got almost nothing from it. This is the 2nd year I got NO broccoli because it bolts before getting big enough to eat :ohno:. So no broccoli or cauliflower and I took some lettuce before the rest bolted :(
Some animal is eating all my strawberries and blueberries.
My spinach bolted too. I guess I will try for a fall crop....
My cukes are looking AWESOME though and I am SO excited to make pickles! :hooray: I've got nice herbs and even zucchini which I haven't had luck with in the past. My tomatoes are looking great too as well as my peppers and eggplant. So hopefully that will make up for my failed spring crop and I will try again in the fall...
So far so good! My tomatoes, corn, eggplant, spinach, and carrots are all doing well!!! Broccoli got eaten by birds!!
Ours Wasnt doing well due to dry heat, so We invested in a mini Greenhouse http://backyardgreenhouses.com/ecom....64&gotopgnum=1 and So far everything is looking MUCH better, Peas, Beans, cucumbers and tomatos NExt year im hoping for more and better!!
Ours is doing good. My beans are on overdrive and doing amazing! Tomatoes are coming along. The peas sucked, we got a few but that was it. Lettuce is eh. Carrots and potatoes are great!
