Wow! What a difference it makes. Our garden seems to be getting bigger every time we check on it. Our bell peppers are growing like crazy. I saw a mini bell pepper (the size of a thumb nail) and then next day when I checked, it was the size of a child's fist...now I am looking forward to the day they turn red! We have so many tomatoes that if they all survive until they are ripe, we are going to be hoping that all of our neighbors love tomatoes as much as we do!
Yesterday, in our perusal of the garden to see what new has popped up...we found that a zuchini was growing. It is tiny right now, but I am really looking forward to having zuchini (from our garden) for our stir-frys and for zuchini bread. We have four plants, do you think we'll have enough zuchini?
At the moment, our biggest fear is that we are going to wake up one morning or come home from work to find our garden trampled. There is a cow next to us that has figured out how to get out of her electric fence. It is pretty interesting to watch her (a cow) slide one of her front hooves between the wire of the fence, then slip her head under, then the next front paw and then the two back legs!
We have been enjoying our garden, if you couldn't tell. As all people know who have grown anything, it is pretty satisfying to plant something and then eat it later!
We have a giant tomato plant growing and have pulling tomatos off for awhile. But it's pretty dried up now. We're hoping it survives the summer and will start to produce again.
ReplyDeleteOur peppers never made it. We had 10 or so growing nicely and then it got HOT and now they are gone.
Love the garden. Yours is much nicer than ours. Enjoy!
Looks like the gardening is a fun time!
