I fertilized again over this past weekend.
Middle Bed.
I had to stake up the tomato cages to keep them upright! I found the one on the far right laying sideways a couple days ago. I think I am going to have a GREAT tomato crop this year!
East Bed. This is my beautiful butter crunch lettuce. It is quite a sight. I grabbed a couple leaves off last night and ate them up. BITTER! Ugh! I guess I'll just admire them for now. :-(
East Bed. Spinach HATES the hot weather. I planted some new. I'll try make sure it is shaded.
East Bed. The red sails lettuce also looks beautiful. I have not tasted this yet.

White onions are kicking the ass of the purple onions

My first yellow squash. Think I planted them a little too close together? I do. Well see how well they do in the end.
West Bed.
There is my squash growing up through the trellis. We'll see if they actually use the trellis as a climbing wall. The potato plant to the left is taller than the trellis.

Broccoli getting over shadowed by the potato plants. Lost 1 broccoli plant to shade. RIP.
This little teeny tiny bastard and his bazillion brother, sisters, cousins and friends are having a heyday with my potatoes and radishes. I think they are aphids. I have been using an insecticidal soap on them, which seems to kill them. I just can't keep up! I pulled all the radishes because there were so many of these little pests on them. Not stellar radishes by any means. Looks like all the energy was spent growing the greens on top and not the radish underground.

Pumpkins.

Pumpkins again.
Wow Shelly! Very impressed! What love and care a garden takes. Maybe I can learn from you. :)
