Results are in...

August 3

So it's been two months since I put most of the garden in and the plants are BOOMING!!!  
I definitely underestimated how much space these puppies needed... see for yourself...


First tomatoes!
But it looks like there are going to be many more where those came from... can you say pasta sauce?
I mean look at those tomato plants - THEY'RE HUGE!!!  Dwarfing the pepper plants in front of them.
The beans are making headway - climbing climbing climbing but no beans yet... hopefully they'll come soon :)
Ear of corn coming right along - they were "knee high on the 4th of July" as planned
Another plant that has completely exploded - the ZUCCHINI!!!  We're going to have zucchini coming out our ears!
Sadly the spinach did not fair so well... it shot in the heat wave and hasn't quite recovered...
We've been eating lots of lettuce though :)
More details to come...
