Harvest Monday - 10/24/11

The tomato plants are still producing, some even with new flowers. The weather has been a bit crazy in So Cal with gloomy and 80F days. So far the tomatoes count is 394 from 8 plants, not bad right? Last week we harvested some tomatoes and purple peppers.

The eggplant plants are producing flowers but not a single eggplant yet, very disappointing :(
The mystery squash finally has a female flower, I am waiting to see what happens.



Tahiti Sunrise Dahlia - What a cutie!

October Updates

It's been some time since I posted. Life has been busy lately, but it will slow down end of november, I hope! Tomato plants are still going strong with new flowers on them. It's been raining and cloudy for the past couple of days. We have harvested 360 tomatoes so far and we lost about 15-20 to the pests. Next season I will invest in a weighing machine so that I know how many pounds the plants produced. Pepper plants are doing okay, I am behind on the fall planting. I want to try carrots and brocolli. Here are some recent pictures.
