Spring Garden-It's time for show and tell

[CDGator]

Happy Birthday to me! I spent some time in the garden watering, putting down the straw and then watering some more. The green sprouts in the middle are potatoes that I didn’t harvest last year. I planted more that should be ready in September.

San Marzano, Roma, slicing Tomatoes
Squash
Zucchini

The garden is coming along nicely but we are really dry so I’m watering a lot.

Pics from around the garden.

This year I’m staking up most of the zucchini and squash. I’ve seen a lot of people do it and it seems to work well. We shall see




Majority of our Yukon and red potatoes were volunteers from last year. They did get shifted over a few rows after seedy tilled and chopped them up. Rows are a bit crooked but we will have a bump crop! They are crowded but I’m watering them a lot.




Lots of beans this year. Black turtle, creamer 8’s, and two types of green beans.




Planted some slicing tomatoes (pictured) Romas, San Marzano, grape and yellow fruit.




One of the 4 blueberry plants are starting to turn. They are big and juicy. I love this early producer. So do the birds. Some have figured out how to get inside the net.
