What did you do in your garden today?

[CrealCritter]

I think just about everyone likes blackberry jam.

Got some tomatoes growing. My wife is ready for them

Looking at all of your posts, I got jealous,lol
So, went out and watered all I have. Funny, they said it would rain and then no rain in sight,lol

Please be patiewith me because I do not eat vegetables at all. So,with that being said, I got questions:

Seems like the head lettuces want to do something but they are not sure. They are not dried and I see new leaves in the middle.



Broccoli, they are kind of getting taller. Do not see any flowers. When would I know they will give Broccoli?


Leave lettuces, they are looking pretty good. There are a few that are kind of plumpy,lol When do I know to pull leaves?


Peppers are growing.


Tomatoes, some are pretty thick. Will need more yarn to keep them up. The new growth needs support.



Sweet onions. I have no clue as to what to expect. Will they flower? How do I know when to pull them?


My poor 5yr old raspberry bush is barely giving fruit. I might need to buy a new one. Poor thing is still alive and is old now that it has a better home!

Yeap! I need to weed around and behind the peppers and tomatoes. And around the raspberry bush,lol Will tackle that this weekend.

@CrealCritter what is that jam, raspberry?

 

[CrealCritter]

She wanted banana peppers to pickle, so I sowed some banana peppers. I think I see some banana peppers, maybe enough to pick a peck? What's a peck anyways?

@CrealCritter what is that jam, raspberry?

Blackberry, low sugar. Really good, not a sweet bomb. I can actually taste the blackberries. She's still canning, I think she's canning whole blackberries though in quarts best I can tell.

Squash is ridiculous, it grows like a foot a day in all different directions. I have no idea how I'm going to pick this patch. 8 foot in between rows, they say .

Do snakes like to hide in squash patches and can squash truly ever have enough room?

Nice work there I've often thought about raised beds. But only did them once for asparagus at my father in-laws so he wouldn't mow the asparagus down..

Last evening, watering new seed planting, then checked other plants. There they were!! Two hornworms on my tomato plant dispatched at once, checked for more. So this morning, soap water and cayenne spray! Tonight, blue light inspection.

Arrrrggggh! only one plant but, ya know how they travel. . Have BT also.

On a good note, first actual open blooms on green beans.

Daylight and 71 out there...better get going!

Checked in on the garden last evening. Every tomato and pepper plant has at least one fruit on it. Saw a couple of baby squashes.

And.....deer prints with about 6 bean leaves missing.
