Things are growing



There has been a bit of rain here in the last couple of weeks and it is making things grow quite fast. It is busy work now trying to keep up with it all.


The first cucumber was picked about 6 days ago.




Then a couple of days ago I got the first of the zucchini and a couple more cucumbers.



These two were eaten with dinner just before.



My barren basil patch that I posted about at an earlier time is still struggling. So I am planting my basil in pots for now. I have about 6 pots going around the yard.


Zucchini plants. With a sneaky self sown tomato in the bottom left.



About one quarter of the cucumber plants that are growing.



The Butternut pumpkin patch.


Some of the sweet peppers. Store bought as I had a bad germination rate with mine this year.



And finally. Some tomatoes. These are Juanne Flamee.


 I really need to post up my growing list and I am really going to try in the next post.
