Pics of my garden veggies

So I had some success! 

The strawberries never came in.  The lettuce was eaten by hungry animals/bugs.  The squash didn't produce. 

The basil and mint came in fantastic.  The tomatoes ended up decent, and I even got a few peppers.  Here are my pickings today!

  • Nice job! Did you have fun?
    I'd rather be rock climbing or playing volleyball

  • I did.  I will try again next year.  I would love to be able to grow a ton of stuff. 
  • Awesome!  How big are those peppers?  We just picked our first bell pepper this week.  I don't know how I am going to go back to grocery store vegetables in the fall.  I am now officially spoiled.

    They are not as big as the kind you will find in the grocery store.  Ha ha ha.  They are about 3/4 the size.  I think next year I want to try some eggplant!  

  • My mother grows peas and has great success with them. I don't know if it's a regional thing that some things grow better than others, but I figured I'd mention it in case you wanted to try them too.

    My mother has a ridiculous garden, though, so she isn't a good example. She grows these huge, jumbo tomatoes. My little sister says it's because she does some kind of voodoo to make them grow.

    Ha  ha ha ha.  I wish I could do that!  

  • That looks like an impressive haul! Is this your first year? I started doing raised beds last year, and got nothing, then this year was a little more productive. I'm hoping next year is a full success!

  • This was my second year.  Last year none of my tomatoes worked out.  I planted too late.  I am hoping next year will be even better!
