garden update

Things are changing in the garden in good ways, and not so good ways.

















One of the tomato plants has small greet tomatoes already. Don't know how big they will get. I previewed a garden-fresh tomato from one of the Amish sellers at the farmer's market Friday morning. Delicious. Makes me hope all the more for what these little plants can do.



















The zucchini has been steadily taking up space, as zucchini are wont to do. There are finally some yellow flowers forming. The leaves look robust: strong stems, good colour, no signs of bugs.




















Now for the not so good side. One of the tomato plants is looking sickly. I have no idea what's going on. I trimmed wilting proximal branches near flowers, but it doesn't seem to be doing any good. Might have to let this one go. One of the other tomato plants was looking peaked earlier today. Hhmmmm....




















I discovered this little bug on a spinach leaf. It can't be good.

Overall, it's been quite an enjoyable project, in spite of some of the losses. Hopefully soon I will be able to enjoy what it produces.
