Harvest Monday 7-18

Still waiting for the garden to kick into high gear! I have yet to have any zucchini or cucumbers! My cucumbers all seem to be dying. The cucumber beetles didn't seem too bad, but I guess bad enough to kill my cukes!
Decided to check in the potato tubs this week and see if there was anything in there. These were all I could reach. So, at least there is something growing in there.
Kennebec Potatoes and basil

Arkansas Traveler tomatoes, they don't seem much bigger than a cherry tomato so far. And some beans and raspberries.

Chard, basil, beans.

Decided to check the corn since the silks were browning, I don't think these were ready. They are definitely small, which from what I am reading could be a nutrient deficiency. They have had PLENTY of water, so I know that is not the problem! There is another Arkansas Traveler too.
Not a huge harvest this week, but still good. Click on over to Daphne's Dandelions to see what else is being harvested this week!

  2. You're not alone. I have no zucchini or cucumbers either. At least you have potatoes, but dummy Granny didn't plant any this year. I sure do miss my freshly dug potatoes!

  8. Envious of your corn and tomatoes - we have neither of those nor cukes or zukes.... just a really delayed summer season for us. Eventually they will get a move on.

  10. Those are lovely varieties of beans! Your chard leaves are big. I wish I have tomatoes too...the big ones refuse to turn red when its winter now.
