How Does Your Veggie Garden Grow

by Cynthia

I am amazed how much growth the vegetable garden has put on in the past couple of days. It does not seem to notice the gloomy and down right chilly weather we have had the last three days. Temperatures did not even reach 70°F over the weekend! Not exactly what I would call summer like weather! Today I thought I would share some of the pictures I took of the vegetable garden over the weekend. I took advantage of the overcast weather to get some nice shots of a view vegetables that are growing beautifully right now.

This year I am trying out raised beds for my corn and I think the photo below shows just how much this year’s corn likes this raised bed!

The zucchini is getting huge and is starting to produce some nice sized zucchinis this week.

The other day I was able to harvest our first one and we ate it raw right then and there. YUM!

Growing next to the zucchini is a pattypan squash and I have found it is always slower to flower than the zucchini. It looks like it should be flowering within the next week though.

I decided to grow some tomatoes, peppers, and basil on my deck in some old nursery pots I happen to have on hand. The deck always gets so hot so I figured they might really like residing there.

Finally, here is a shot of my bush beans that are flowering. Aren’t they pretty? I did not know this variety would have such pretty flowers. Now I can’t wait for the beans to develop.

That was a small glimpse into how my veggies are growing this week. How are your vegetables growing right now? Harvesting anything this week?
