Pfffffffffft!! My maters are waaaaay friggin bigger than those I just have to finish wiring the rows up since they grew faster than I anticipated and I didn't get it all done in time.


I have 34 tomato plants this year. Smiling


Re: What's in your garden? - Tia - 06-17-2009

That's a lot of tomatoes! Do you can them?

No. I am thinking I will be giving a lot of them away this year. I planted a bunch of them because I have a big garden area and usually plant things I KNOW will grow well for me. My pumpkins are kicking butt this year too. Actually everything except for my cantaloupe and my carrots are thriving.


Re: What's in your garden? - Tia - 06-18-2009

Yeah, well, that's a lot of tomatoes! Find homes for all that fruit! Smiling

34??? Surprised

Melons seem to be a bit finicky around these parts. I notice they did well in AZ. Is it a sun/heat/lenghth of summer thing?

You nailed it. They do like heat and not alot of moisture. When we lived in Vegas, I had a little garden in my back yard and I grew some really good sugarbaby watermelons. No luck with them here.

BTW Tia, I think my oregano flowers are almost ready for you. Do you want them fresh or can I pick them and have them drying for you?


Re: What's in your garden? - RobinBird - 06-18-2009

My bell peppers are getting blackish on the stalks where branches branch out. Does anyone know what that is? Too much water?

If they need to be picked you can pick them. I want them dry anyway. If you pick them, let me know and I can pick them up.
