Moar Garden

A little photo summary of harvests from the last two weeks or so...

A giant cucumber, some serious basil, &
our first heirloom tomato! 
Broccoli, strawberries, toscano kale, close
to 40 padron peppers, and that heirloom
tomato!
An assortment of tomatoes, a couple padrons,
another bunch of basil, a summer squash,
and another giant cucumber.
A little rainbow chard, tomatoes, padrons,
and some mediocre strawberries
(might be inedible due to worms and/or mold)
(oops)

  1. Impressive! Does your broccoli end up as heads, or as little florets scattered about? I've never had any luck with it, and am wondering what I am doing wrong. Same thing with cauliflower. Are you bringing some of the padrons camping? Would love to try one.

  2. Our broccoli ends up as little florets all around -- I'm never quite sure if I should pick them or if they'll grow into heads if I leave them. Once they start looking like they're going to flower, I pick them, and then I pretend it's broccolini and I'm very happy with the results ;)

    If there are padrons ready to pick Thursday morning, we'll bring them for sure! We typically get 30-40 every 3 weeks or so, but I picked it clean right before Yosemite, so it's still replenishing.
