So far we have gotten two cucumbers our of the garden and plenty of lettuce.
I have destroyed my cucumber plants by weeding around them. I think I moved the vines too much and by allowing them to grow on the same trellis as the green beans I have damaged the green bean crop as well.
It is definitely a learning process
Here are some recent pictures

Lettuce for our dinner salad... was awesome!!!
Had another salad for dinner tonight. |
|
Lettuce plants after I pulled off the bottom leaves, then I put the stakes in and twisty tied the plants to them. I found these green garden stakes at Lowes for $5.50 for 25 of them. I have been looking for a week for something like this I don't know how I missed them. |
|
Eggplant looking healthy. I think I need to stake these plants |
|
Lettuce plant. I picked the leaves from the bottom and worked my way up the stalk. |
|
This is the structure I built to see if the peas growing will climb up. Underneath the peas is a row of micro greens that I cut with a kitchen scissor and put in the salads. |
|
These are the first peppers growing on one of the 8 pepper plants I have. I can't wait, almost as exciting as eggs. |
|
These are the first showing of tomatoes in the garden. This is the cherry tomato bush growing every which way. These will be a great addition to the dinner salads. |
