July 26, 2020

Well, the zucchini harvest is just very lame this year.

But tonight we ate the broccoli!

I made some pickles last week but hope to make more dill this week.

Running out of Zucchini bread so made more on Saturday. The dark chocolate zucchini bread is like a dessert.

Tomatoes and peppers doing really well.  Just one summer squash growing.

I think the garden is just so chaotic.

July 15, 2020 Back from Utah

So, Debbie wanted the tomatoes but not the zucchini.  The count is 5 zucchini, a couple big ones for bread or stuffed, and one great summer squash that I put in my egg this morning!

First time for broccoli


Kale and still lettuce.Must cut that
Still have blossom end rot on some of the tomatoes.  will feed them milk and I fertilized when I got home yesterday.

July 2, 2020 Wind and powery mildew

It has been hot, dry and windy.

All the marigolds that I planted in the back flower garden died. Have no idea why.


A big wind blue little tomatoes everywhere.

The cucumbers already have powdery mildew.  Sprayed something Laura Flanders told me about, a mixture of 1 teaspoon epsom salts and 1 t baking soda as well as neem oil on the plants.

The success has been the milk in the tomato plants.

bummer that that dahlia is looking sick.  Too small of a pot. I really do need larger pots for many things.  A future plan.
