This Morning's Harvest
Lotsa Cucumbers are coming in along with Zucchini, Strawberries are still trickling in, enough for about 1/2 basket a day! A few Cherry Tomatoes are starting to ripen. Some green beans and a small bit of seedless grapes too!
Wow....nice....what a feast! Perfect for someone on a diet!!!!! I have 12 zucchini plants growing. This weekend gonna find a place to plant each of them...can hardly wait to get my first zucchini!
Wow Louise! 12 Zuke plants! Where do you find room??? Also, how do you eat THAT many zucchinis? We're happy with one plant (had 2 but one succumbed to mosaic virus) and we still get one zucchini fruit every other day, which is plenty for us. We might start another plant in a month as a successor to this current one. They are so productive! I used saved seed from an heirloom called "Black Eel".

Great Harvest. We should be picking cucumbers by next week too.
