Wa8ting eagerly for yellow squash and zucchini- we use them before they get huge, slice and boil, then add butter salt and pepper- I’m not a big veggie person but do love yellow squash this way. (Green beans and carrots too). Summer is the only time I get any real veggies
Well it was so busy last week I could not respond to posts so I will do it this week in one really big post -
devane617 - Our roses are going gangbusters this year as is most everthing else.
metmom - our garlic is nearly ready (west Michgan)
Bon of Babble - Love your pics as usual. Love the back wall and nice to find out hubby left it behind for you to enjoy. Sweet!
Augie, our problem is always groundhogs and raccoons. Dispatched our last groundhog at least for this season. Still have one raccoon coming around. Want to take care of this before raspberries start to ripen.
Qiviut - our lavendar is gorgeous, third year
daniel1212- great pictures wow they are really growing.
WhoisAlanGreenspan - love those raised beds with irrigation. As far as the radishes that is one of my specialties, thinning yours out won’t help. Been there done it. Now I plants in a raised planter where I can carefully plant one seed at a time and space out.
Diana, my grandmother did all her canning outside in a big kettle over a fire.
Beans have been a challenge. I only grow the chinese long beans but I picked up a packet of green bean seeds because I had one planter pot unused. I just hate bending over and picking beans. Only two plants came up out of 7 or 8. It’s neem hot, trying to start 4 indoors.
Pollard - I have 8 shishito plants. All in the garden except one in a big pot. It’s almost 3 times the size and loaded. Photo coming
Diana - When I put those 8 bug bouquet’s of yours in the ground. I thought, I should have planted more. They looked so measley. Well most are bigger than a full bushel basket. You weren’t kidding about the borage, I tried to keep it light but they are huge. I started looking up what to do with borage and now I am happy to have so much.
Everything in general is doing great. We water a lot because it had been so dry.
Have to cut this for now as i have to get up pictures on later so I can post them.
