Elephant garlic is harvested and braided.
Onions are coming in one at a time.

The cilantro cover crop is blooming nicely and worked pretty well. We
have enough frozen for 2 years... and boy does the garden smell good
when walking around. After it seeds, I'll till and mulch the paths,
weed and mulch the beds.

Rebar as stakes for tomatoes and tall peppers. We had a wild
thunderstorm last night, one of my concerns as they sway a good bit. No
damage! I got 8 foot pieces cut and use the leftover pieces for hab
support.

I have settled on surveyor's green tape for typing things up. It is
cheap, stretches, but is still strong. No used pantyhose in these parts!


Well, back to the garden!

John!

I harvested about a gallon of green beans from my garden. Strawberries are done. Blueberries and Blackberries are ripening. I just recieved some new Raspberry plants in the mail. Bought them because they were on sale. So I just got them planted in dreams of the future red raspberries. There are little green tomatoes on my tomato plants. My peppers and eggplants don't have flowers yet. I did get them in kind of late though. My squash doesn't have any flowers yet either. But all the plants are growing great!
