Been harvesting 2 or 3 mixed radishes every other day for 2 weeks. Out of the 40 or so I planted late bout 20 set, hope to get 5 or 6 more from the patch. Going to plant again soon. Letting the fastest 2 growers/bloomers and 2 largest go to seed. Found a mint patch this AM while mowing, hadn't seen it in 10 years or so. I'm gona mark it and pay more attention to the Kentucky Derby next year.

Everyone's garden is looking good.

I did some plowing. Got the new squash, corn, peas, beans and okra plowed.

I potted two Pruden's Purples and a Cherry for friends. Did a couple of Brandywine for myself too.

My 2nd Muncher of the season.



But the Armenian cucumbers are starting to vine. Won't be long at all now. {I need to side dress while I can still get to them}

One of the Nina beans cashed, so I'm down to 13. I did see the first bloom this morning.

The Joe E. Parker New Mexico Chili peppers are growing.

I culled a dozen or so Hatch, and moved the rest out into the sun.

I worked on my new pepper pit. I culled some tomatoes, so added that soil. Also added 10 gallons of mushroom compost and tilled it in with the native soil. {I'm out of peat moss} Will do more when I have more time.

Looking good, Larry. Things are moving right along.

Thanks. Everything will be demanding to be picked. Where did all my free time go?

 

[too larry]

From one day this week. We have been shelling the peas and putting them in the fridge. Tomorrow's picking should be enough for a good mess.

Last year I got spaghetti squash seeds from my BIL. There were two kinds of seeds. The regular spaghetti squash and a variety I had never seen before. Half of them were green with white stripes, and half looked like a zuke, just 1.5 times as large. {there are pictures of them on this thread. Not sure of the page number}

Anyway, I saved seeds from them, but can not find them now. I ask the BIL if he still had the original seeds. I had bought spaghetti at the Co-Op and planted a few rows of them, but planted a few of his too, just in case they are the long green kind.

Also planted a few rows of Acorn squash.

I planted a couple of my big acorn oaks. One at my old camp and one at the new one.

I've got a few peach trees at each location too.
