great haul cam yep I pulled my plants a couple of weeks ago now and glad I did cause now we are being invaded by the big crickets and I still have a few cherry tomatoes growing and that will be the last haul for the season it has just been so hot up in the 100s + and that is not good for any plant and my snapdragons are suffering so I'm sure I will have to pull them up soon .
It's one thing if you steal it, but to sit on my deck and eat it? lol
Apparently it wasn't a Tomato.. I left some cucumbers "on the ground" that weren't good... I got the squirrels trained well. Take whats on the ground, not the plant!
BTW -- Cucumbers suck this year! I'm blaming June's weather for that
Then again... The cucumbers on the ground, not the trellis are much healthier. Weird.
Lots of Bell Peppers.
Hot Peppers doing well with the July Heat/Humidity we had
Will the Eggplants actually produce? What a comeback! Do they know they only have 1 more good month? lol
Been picking ripe tomatoes for the past week. This one is called Black Krim. Darker color but not resistant to cracking though.
Cambium so sorry about your tomatoes dear and maybe it is going to be a bad winter this year and they know it before we do. Never the less it is still heartbreaking to have some mater destroyed after all that work ....again sorry and I hope you are able to salvage some of them .
Cambium, those onions look fantastic! I love onions in just about anything. YUM!
Did you end up getting any eggplants to grow? I don't think I've seen any pictures of picked eggplants?
Thanks! I almost brought the onions inside, no rain so I left them outside overnight. Aroma is strong! + was still wet so I wanted to naturally air them out. Will bring them inside and store in cool dark place today.
No Eggplants but I haven't closely examined the plants lately. Will post pictures of them later. Thanks for asking! Nice to know people understand my challenges. lol

I guess the strength is in numbers. If I only had 5 Tomato plants I'd be pissed. Plenty to go around with 25. But maybe next year I'll need 50. lol
Cam, it all looks so beautiful. I am envious of your onions - I can't seem to get mine above golf ball size. They're delicious nonetheless and NEVER go to waste.
Looking forward to seeing more photos - your garden is gorgeous.

Couple of Tomatoes this morning. Camera phone didn't pick up on the pinkish color with the one on the left.
