Finally, it's been a comfortable few days. Not the nasty hot weather lately.
MY remaining 6 (of 8 planted) tomatos at the camper are coming along nicely, and providing lots of fresh Tomato!
Above: A BIG Yellow Jubilee Tomato, a smaller Tigerella, a couple of White Cherry, a few Sweetie Cherry, and some Yellow Pear Tomato.
I spent my morning, outside, watering, weeding, and tending the plants.
Busy Bee!
Above: A Busy Bee in my Beach Rose (Rosa Rugosa) Below: Some flowers potted up and ready for the BUSY BEE to come visit!
Above: Lots of Tigerella coming soon! Below: Even more Tigerella! ... AND, the Cucumbers I worked on today. Some male and female flowers, soon to be Cucumber.
Above: Female Cucumber Flowers (similar with female Squash or Zucchini) have little Mini Cucumbers behind them. Below: Male Cucumber Flowers have no flower!
If you have LOTS of plants and lots of both make and female flowers, all you need is a good wind to pollinate. If not, then some busy bees. If not that, one can take a QTip, Toothbrush or even small finger, and help, but touching the inside of a male flower, and moving to inside a female flower.
Anyone else need a cold shower, now?
How is your GroVid22 Garden GROWING?
Gardening To DO:
WATER, water, water...
I just planted some Fall Snow Peas and Golden Peas, as well as some Zucchini, and Muncher Cucumber.
For Kicks, i planted 6 Beefsteak tomato seeds. They say 55-60 days until harvest, I have 75 or so until first expected frost, so let us see.
LOTS More to come, from my GroVid22 Gardens!
