Cukes are all done, (and canned) now it's on to the tomatoes and peppers - Bells, hot Cherries and Jalepenos are all ripe for pickin'.
Tomatoes are Early Girls and an un-named heirloom type - ugly but delicious.
We had a sudden early heat wave and my cukes did poorly. I had to replant and now just starting to get baby ones. Controlling cuke mosaic with thuricide and peroxide. I think we got past the cuke beetle stage since we had to replant everything that got fried even after hardening off.
Got a late start on cukes this year so they are just coming in here in upstate NY. Plus they are getting a bit yellow aka mosaic, so have been spraying the fung-oil mixture on them.
For the tomatoes, I just follow Ethan Chlebowski’s (Marcella Hazan) 3 ingredient pasta sauce recipe https://www.cookwell.com/recipe/marcella-hazan-s-3-ingredient-tomato-sauce
and they go into mason jars with lots of head room and then into the freezer.
