White eggplant. It did okay : / not as big as I thought it would get
My favourite: bell peppers! I would wait for them to ripen and turn into beautiful red peppers, but I can't contain my excitement and want them on my dinner plate now
This is only a small portion of what I've collected ( @o@ )~
I'm so proud of these four - they look fantastic!
Leafy eggplant plants sporting fat, shiny eggplants
This month has been great for collecting a variety of vegetables like eggplant, cucumbers and tomatoes... so many tomatoes
They just won't stop coming!
Om nom nom, it's eating the grape tomatoes!
They have crawled onto the walkway
At least these big, juicy cucumbers are on their way to the dinner table
What's for dinner tonight?
Cucumber plants are prickly like a cactus and grow like they are on steroids
The bush beans are not happy about the tomatoes pushing them onto the lawn
What a bushy apple tree
3 month old Romaine lettuce ready to be made into a delicious Caesar salad
Tiny, round and cute 9 week old Tiny Tims
This little 12 week old guy fell to the ground a wee bit too early
So much fresh lettuce *o*
Oh, a beet
After last year's heartbreaking failure at growing this plant, I'm ecstatic to announce my first ever harvest of spinach! Most ended up in my niece's little belly though I did get to nibble on a few leaves and let me tell you it was worth all the trouble I went through. Nothing is comparable to the taste of fresh vegetables that you tended to day in, day out.
What's left of my babies, but...
...yay! The field spinach seedlings have popped out. They took their lovely time to show themselves, nearly three long weeks.
All too bushy five week old oregano.
Buttercrunch and Grand Rapid lettuce seedlings feeling overcrowded.
Almost good for the picking seven week old spinach and six week old tatsoi.
Had a little accident and all the six week old chubbies came spilling out of the pot. Curse my clumsiness!
Here's a look at the orange part of the chubby seedlings.
Four went back in to the pot, while the other four were placed in the ground. Both groups are doing just fine : )
Home Depot had quite a nice selection of annuals.
I felt like harvesting something and pulled these young shallots out. Now they must go back in. Sorry.
It suddenly snowed this morning and is now a chilly 5'C. Talk about crazy weather, it was a gorgeous 21'C three days ago.
Pot spinach, ten weeks.
