So, how is your vegetable garden doing this year?

Are those the ones you planted two years ago?

Wonder where Mitch is? Probably out shoveling the snow off his veggies!

I can't judge. This has been me so far this summer....

Thanks, @Nanner. My mouth is watering already...and, although we don't have our own beets just yet, we bought some great ones just this past weekend from one of the country stores that sells our products. Going to try grilling them! Thanks a bunch!

Very welcome...report back how you like them

Lol That is cool, tbendl That's the way it was here the whole month of June. And, May was I the 50's at best. Mine only did good because we have a raised bed.

@MoonShadows I love your vegetable garden! Very easy on the eye and well kept, great job!

@mrsclem Your potted garden looks great! I too grow my veggies in pots on the deck, often mixed in with flowers

I grow tomatoes (several kinds) cucumbers, eggplants, zucchini,potatoes, peppers, strawberries and all kinds of herbs
I tried growing a watermelon last year, and it was doing great, but then it got eaten by I'm guessing a squirrel

Got 1st tomatoes from the garden...only 6 grape tomatoes but its a start...probably got a 100 green ones. Pulled another 5 zucchini ...made a zucchini lasgana...with two of them and another 5 sliced, blanched and frozen this week. Everything seems to be kicking into high gear.

A quick photo..this was layer there of the zucchini...added sauce and cheese to.the top ...baked for 45 minutes and broiled for 5...

Mmm good.

Looks good, @Nanner. I am starting to get blooms on my tomatoes and zucchini. I can't believe how far behind we are this year with the wet, cold Spring we've had. Still have not had a day where it reached 90 degrees...unheard of here! Yesterday, I spent a while pruning my tomatoes of non-producing branches to drive more energy into the blossoms and open the plants up more to avoid disease.

I can't believe I can no longer eat zucchini, cucumbers or any other melons, seems I've developed a sudden allergy!
I thought I'd have a reaction to only store bought, blamed on whatever poisons they spray on, but turns out my own grown do me even worse
I don't get it! How can something so healthy for most, can be so bad for me to eat?

 

[MoonShadows]

So sorry to hear this, @Gemma!

So sorry to hear this, @Gemma!

Thanks!
On a good note, I ate my first tomato today!
