    fun new yummy greens. Always cool to try a different one.
    these are some baby corn yet to produce. Also some snap peas. 

    Have carrot seedlings growing. Will have to thin them out soon. 
    Lot's of great lettuce.
    Plan to jar up some more stringbeans. Love that my dill is doing great too. 
    Good year.

    Pat's self on back.

    Planted Fava beans and couple weeks ago as a cover crop. Roots are supposed to be great to break up the soil. After they are done I will harvest if any beans, then turn the plants into the soil. First time I'm doing this. They are starting to sprout now.

    Fertilized my carrots with fish emulsion. They look great.

    String beans are about done. Been giving away lots of them. Lettuce too.

    Also have a good handful of golden beets. Planted tons but only got about 7. 

    Just planted about 20 garlic today. They need the cold winter (& about 9 months)to form into full bulbs. So with each one planted I think of next season. 

    Good times. Take care

    freeze warning so harvested most of my lettuce, washed, bagged in fridge. Boiled up the few beets and put in with a jar of pickled ones.
    Winter is coming

    Second year in a row most of my tomatoes did not ripen until the Fall. Anyone else experience this?

    Yes. Some were so slow to ripen. Brought them, unripened, inside. They ripened up nicely on the table. Also kept the critters from snacking on them.

    Thanks!  It is satisfying and enjoy sharing my harvest with friends. Was a great season. Now adding chopped up leaves to the top of my garden. Lettuce making it through a few good cold nights still.
