Yikes! It appears that I am long overdue for an update.
Everything is going gangbusters out in the kitchen garden.
I harvested the Russian Banana Fingerling potatoes two weeks ago. They didn’t do as well as I would have liked, so I need to figure out where I went wrong.
The Yukon Gold potatoes will probably be harvested in 2-3 weeks.
The edamame is growing like crazy and it looks like we’ll be eating that in 2 or 3 weeks too.
The tomato plants are loaded with green tomatoes, so the real question will be if we’ll get Yellow Pear or Brandywine tomatoes first. I’m betting on the former.
I was feeling somewhat disappointed in the cucumber vines, as they hadn’t grown much, so imagine my surprise today when I discovered one plant loaded with baby cukes and another one with a ready-to-be-picked cuke!
The blueberry bushes are taking their own sweet time, so it looks like we’ll be picking later than usual. Again, in about 2 or 3 weeks.
The strawberries are living up to their everbearer status and we’re still getting a few berries a week.
We’ve been enjoying fresh herbs for weeks now and I’m thrilled with the potential basil harvest.
That’s about all for now. I’ll try to remember to take photos later. It’s hot as heck out there (99 with a heat index of 100+) so while it sucks for us humans, at least the tomatoes will be happy.
