I'm now only getting okra, lots of black-eyed peas, bell peppers and a few hot peppers. I still have tomato plants, but they haven't bloomed in awhile. Been too busy to bother with them. My green beans still look good, but the pods are pretty empty, the beans aren't maturing. I probably need fertilizer.
I remember last year when the whole garden died due to the drought, all I had left was okra and the green beans, which weren't producing beans AT ALL and I blamed my husband getting yard fertilizer on the garden. The plants were beautiful, but not producing. After fall set in though, they began producing very well and they were tasty, too. SO, I'm hoping as it gets cooler this years green beans will produce again, as well.
Enjoy your weekend, everyone!

We are hoping to get a few beans this fall too. Tomatoes have quite a few blooms. Main problem this year has been every single tomato disappears while still very very green.
I think the squirrels have been eating them for moisture.
