Garden Update, Parts 3-6

Thought of the Day…“Ask not what you can do for your country. Ask what’s for lunch.” —Orson Wells

I’ve been really behind in my garden blogging… sorry! WOW… I just looked and I never posted parts 3 or 4… Oooops!

I’ll do a brief recap.

​You can see in the few weeks between June 25-July 13 there was quite a bit of growth…

Even more growth between July 13 and August 3

But this morning, I had quite a few tomatoes… this one is the Tumbler Tomato (duh… you can read). It is the one I bought as part of the CSA and talked about in Garden Update, Part 1.

The Volunteer plant has flowers on it, but still don’t know if it is a Sun Gold or Sweet 100…

My cucumber plant isn’t doing too well… some don’t make it … there a some “newborns” (good thing they’re not vampires – if you’re not a Twilight/New Moon/Eclipse fan sorry, you won’t understand) – or maybe they are and that’s why some didn’t make it… 😀

Oh… there’s my injured thumb (from Trip to ER)… it’s healing nicely… 🙂
