Vegetable Garden Update - Thursday 7/8/10

Another small picture update of our Vegetable Garden. I think this weekend we will be making up at least one jar of Dill Pickles !

Potato Box

I added taller sides to my potato box and covered up most of the new growth with straw/



Cherry Tomatoes

Cherry tomatoes getting around to turning color soon



Green Pepper

Somehow we missed this little Green Pepper growing previously. I think I wasn't paying very much attention to the Green Pepper plants at all because they didn't grow as much as everything else. Even still we have a little pepper on both of our plants with more to come I am sure.



Bush Cucumber, Dill Pickle

Just another future Dill Pickle about ready to be picked.

Vegetable Garden Update - Tuesday 7/6/10

We just got back on Sunday evening from Vacation in Wisconsin visiting Nyssa's family for a week. Meanwhile my sister was stopping up to water and tend to our little Vegetable Garden.

It really Grew!


(Monday) A few Bush cucumbers were at the pickling size, just not enough of them to pickle yet. Although we went out there again today to water and found that smaller ones we had noticed the day before had doubled in size! Soon I imagine we will have a good amount to pickle. yum.




This is one we found today that we missed yesterday, or that grew a bunch more in one day.




Not a very good angle to show how much the potato plants have grown but I covered them up with as much straw as the box would hold and tomorrow will Have to add sides to go up a little higher so I can cover the rest of the plant up. There is a little group of blossoms on the top of one plant already!




Me shoving straw around potato plants. See how much the Tomato plant grew in a week!




I'm still covering the potatoes here and a good shot of how bushy the Cucumbers have gotten.


Will post some vacation stuff soon.
