Hello! How was your week and what progress did you see in your garden? What are you happy or unhappy with? Time to share your experiences!
Personally I’ve been fighting a nasty invasion in my brassicas that destroyed the daikons. At least the broccoli looks okay.
On the good news front, I’ve been blessed with delicious lettuces that keep coming back, my beans are thriving, I get a new courgette every other day and I’ve seen my first cucumber flowers. Here’s hoping they give me many fruits!
Our month of June was very hot and dry, but fortunately a good rain helped us this week. Water management is a challenge though, and I’m a bit torn between my desire for a good harvest and my efforts to keep watering to a minimum to avoid waste.
I’m not growing much as this is my first year attempting a vegetable garden and I didn’t want to overdo it as I generally tend to.
I have some severely distressed squash (I think I am underwatering and the soil has too much clay).
there are a few tomatoes growing on the plant in the same dirt as the squash. in the other section I have a bunch of overcrowded tomatoes I grew from seed that haven’t flowered much.
the last radishes are flowering so I’ll have plenty of seed for next year. and I have a few pinto pods already from my storebought beans!
