This was our garden back in April...
freshly planted tomato plants
front row of baby pepper plants, then a column of cabbage, swiss chard, kale, and radicchio
And this is our current garden... lots of growth since April!
these are our tomato plants (also pictured is my #1 tomato thief)
caught... red-mouthed??
these are my pole beans (left) and baby cucumbers (right), both are growing up a trellis on the back side of the tomatoes.
This is my other bed. The front row of peppers and a back row of okra.
In the middle you can see my eggplant and swiss chard.
Overall this year, we have had a lot of success with our tomatoes (Sweet 100 and Juliet and Husky Cherry Red) as well as with our swiss chard. I'm hoping we'll begin harvesting some cukes in a week or two. A few of my plants have suffered from not having enough fertilizer or organic matter in the soil. I tried to remedy that mid-season by adding some of our compost, but I need to do a better job of adding it in before planting next year. (I also had some zucchini planted earlier in the season, but a vine borer got them before I realized it.)
tomato thief caught again...
