The corn is coming up on the side of the house.
The peas have started producing. They got slowed by a couple 90 degree days. The ones on the side of the house didn't fare as well as the ones in the backyard. They would have done better but they don't like the heat. I can't control the weather though.
I have some overwintered kale going to seed in between the peas. The seeds will be good for sprouts to eat. The flowers also attract bees.
My tomatoes and peppers got a little stressed waiting to be planted. They were not looking very good but they greened up really fast and started growing rapidly. Next year I'm going to start them a couple weeks later. I say that every year but when the time comes I'm busy sowing seeds in early February. I planted basil and parsley around the edges.
I'm using the cheap crappy tomato cages for the bushier varieties and I stuck some PVC in the ground for the beefsteaks which I'll train to grow straight up. I did the same thing last year and it worked ok. I'll have to brace them once the plants get bigger and heavy from tomatoes. Next year I'll make some like
@MICHI-CAN. I wasn't going to use the cages but the lady bought them for me and she asked why I didn't use them last year. I stuck them in the ground to make her happy. Her happiness is important to me. When she's not happy I can't be either.
That mess in the back bed is some carrots, radishes, and turnips that overwintered and I'm letting go to seed. I have some lettuce and kale in there as well and just planted some bush beans where I could. The turnip and radish seeds will be good for sprouts. I'll mix them with the kale seeds after saving some for planting. The bees also like the flowers.
I'm anxiously waiting for the Tayberries to start ripening. It's going to be a wall of berries.
