Weeds

So we have had an influx of green beans. I picked what I call a "popcorn" bowl just of beans in just one row. I still have one more row to pick, if I can get to them through the potatoes. Of course, I have more weeds than anything. If it isn't raining, it's too hot and humid to be in the garden. The heat index was over 100 on Wednesday. It was so humid I felt like I was swimming while I was outside. Hopefully I'll get some pictures of all of our harvest posted soon!

Harvest

I had my first harvest of our garden a few days ago. There were three Roma tomatoes that were a very pretty red color. So, I picked them! And I ate them! And they were delicious! There are a lot of green tomatoes, yet, so hopefully they will turn soon and the canning can begin! I also have a lot of flowers on my bean plants. I'm hoping to have beans galore! And of course the cucumbers are taking over their corner of the garden so I'm going to need to start looking up good pickle recipes too!

How Does Your Garden Grow

It has been absolutely gorgeous here for the last day and a half. It has actually stopped raining for more than six hours. Of course all of the rain has really made the garden take off. Of course our strawberries didn't really produce. It's been three years since we've planted them. I see little tiny berries start, but they never turn red. The rogue radishes that cropped up are already going to seed. Of course, one of us has to be home to actually start harvesting.

I also think our raspberries are going to have a had time producing. The weeds have almost completely taken over, so I'll have to see if I can't transplant some of the younger plants to somewhere else. We have a couple of spots that need plants, so maybe they will do better there.
