First cucumber

Plus lots and lots of raspberries. If this keeps up I may have to look up how to make raspberry jam.

Unfortunately, I think the birds are getting most of the rest of the blueberries. Grr.

Kholrabi and kale, ready to pick

Of course, just when we have too many of other types of vegetables. Still, nice to see that I can grow them. We'll see how the kholrabi tastes tomorrow.

And we now have ripe raspberries. Yay!

Growing...

I suppose it's not bad to go away for a few days at this point. Aside from weeding (always needed) there isn't much to do. Everything survived my being away. In fact, there are now small tomatoes, and kholrabis are getting large enough to pick. (I have to figure out how big I can let them get). The blueberries are still there, at least the ones underneath the netting---and so far, the less ripe ones not netted. I'm not sure when we should pick them, but it will be soon.

The main thing right now, I think, is to keep everything watered. There's been no rain, and it's been very hot.
