All the melons are coming ripe. We picked another watermelon yesterday.
It was a lovely orange one, and we ate it right up.
This is actually from Monday, when Rick picked some corn. These were the second and third ears. Buddy said the first one tasted great.
The beans are coming ripe too. I planted those very late, but it looks like we'll get a nice crop.
Catherine takes a bite of bean. She made rather a different face when she had a bite of the orange hot thai peppers that are just starting to ripen.
We figure it's probaby time to harvest the rest of the tomatillos, and pull those rows up. We can pull the big mama tomatoes too, as they aren't producing well. Then we'll pull back the mulch, amend the soil, and start setting in the baby cabbages, broccoli, cauliflower, parsley, and fennel I have started in pots. The seeds in this bed are coming up like crazy too. Even the carrots have germinated, and they can be fussy. We'll have to wait until the tomatoes stop producing to plant those. Then once this bed is free again, we'll start onion seeds.
The naked ladies are spectacular right now.
Rick picks more peppers.
