Garden 2010 update

Quite the sunrise this morning, already humid too.

Zucchini squash are starting to come in had our first tonight for dinner grilled. We had our first Summer squash last night boiled in butter, oh was that good!

Bell Peppers our first they seem to be struggling this year, more compost and peat next year. This is a new variety we are trying this year so I haven't given up hope.

Tomato's are finally with the heat starting to grow out of the cages, several green ones can be seen. Still Moms tomato's are easily twice the size of these Roma, early girl and Big Boy plants. This heat, 2+ weeks of 85+ temps and almost no rain is something we havent had here in 2 or three years. It is supposed to rain possibly 3" tonight, good thing, my lawn is getting crunchy.

I did manage to pick 1/2 cup of blueberries and 1/2 cup of raspberries tonight. I'm thinking they'd be great on ice cream...

How's your garden doing?
