cukes over the years





The weather has been cold and wet for the first half of summer and the ground hasn't warmed up enough to jumpstart the cukes. for a comparison, here's the cucumbers from 7/28/06, and 7/21/07. The last one was taken 7/14/09. They got some catching up to do.
Collards, broccoli and kales are loving the cool nights and doing great. Zucchini and Summer squash, just starting. The lettuces haven't gotten bitter yet from too much sun (the plus side of the cold and rain). I'll post more of this year's crop in a day or 2.

  • Last summer we planted cuke seedlings, which did much better than the seeds we planted at first. But the varieties we put in as seeds did eventually take and went wild some time in August.
