It's nearing the end of June and our veggie garden is coming along nicely. The weather this year is far better than last year, which was incredibly hot and dry; now we are extremely damp so I'm not having to water near as much. Most of the crop was started from seed except the cherry tomato plant and half the cucumber vines, which were store-bought in small pots.
I didn't get everything in the ground as fast as I would have liked, some things (like the pumpkins, peppers, tomatoes and watermelons) stayed in the seed starter pots longer than they should so they're just getting started in-ground. I still have some empty spaces left over, maybe I'll add some lettuce and onions and more broccoli.
The corn is doing VERY well this year. Last season we didn't even get a full ear, it was way too hot/dry for a decent crop. The sweet corn is in-ground, the Indian corn is super-thriving in a 5-gallon bucket on the patio.
Tiny cherry tomatoes of the Sweet 100 variety.
Baby 'burpless' cucumber, about the length of your little finger.
Larger 'burpless' cucumber coming along nicely.
Thanks for checking in!
