I know its been some time since my last post. But as most of you know, I'm pregnant and off work. While it seems like a perfect time for gardening and blogging, I've been relaxing and enjoying the fact that I don't have to do anything. I know this type of freedom will not happen again for a long time. so I'm soaking it up. :)
As for the garden, Somethings made it and something did not. Lets start with what did not make it:
My Squash. Sadly. It flowered like crazy but only gave me 1 squash. Maybe the lack of bee's. It kind-a looks like it got sick. I'm not to sure.
Broccoli. I have a picture of what my broccoli is doing. there are some sprouts but most of the leaves have been eaten off and the sprouts have little black bugs in them. gross.
Park Whopper Tomatoes. the vine is growing tall and strong. it makes flowers but not tomatoes. We found out worms will eat the vine and flowers. Sure enough we found 3 worms on it. here's hoping it produces.
Made it:
Roma Grape Tomatoes. we've eaten a lot of these guys. very yummy.
Heirloom Tomatoes. we've had 3 off this plant. hopefully the worm issue will help him out too.
Sweet Bell peppers -green/red. This did great! we have a lot of green peppers growing. Did you know that green peppers left on the vine will turn red? I did not.
All the herbs are doing great. and Thanks to a friend at work we've added Spanish oregano too the mix. What a great smell this has!
My Very sad Broccoli.
as you can see the leaves have been somethings lunch.
