Remember my Murphy's Law of Gardening Post?

Yep. It's happening. We leave town next week. What have I discovered on my plants? Veggies are forming. I have three tomatoes on my Early Girl, Jalepenos are forming, the grape tomato plants have several green tomatoes, and the okra plants are forming buds. Oh and the everbearing strawberries are putting out blooms for the second harvest.

I won't get to enjoy any of it. By the time it's ripe, I'll be on a  beach. Guess my neighbor will get to enjoy my first harvest! I promised a co-worker some tomatoes, so I'm hoping the Early Girl tomatoes will be big enough for me to bring to work on Wednesday.

At least I did get to eat my romaine lettuce!

  • it takes forever for tomatoes to ripen... I bet they aren't ready until you get back.... I have a tonne of tomatoes but nothing is close to ripening yet
  • H4S - Has it been hot your way? We've had several days of high temps and heat indcies of over 100 degrees. As soon as it hit 90 here, everything started ripening. I pulled three grape tomatoes off the vine the other day.
