It's like magic

All of a sudden, vegetables are starting to pop up everywhere.  Rachel compared it to magic...you put a little seed in the dirt and then poof, food starts appearing. The bit of rain we received this week didn't hurt, either.  While I only picked 1 pickle-sized cucumber yesterday, the potential for cucumbers is evident below by the number of flowers growing.  I'm really looking forward to experimenting with different pickling recipes.  I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

The cucumbers will be bountiful

 
Kentucky pole beans in all of their glory
Onions
Georgia collard greens/swiss cheese.  This was before the Sluggo battle commenced.

The cauliflower has seen better days.  Damn you caterpillars!
I'm hopeful this plant will make a strong comeback.
Salad mixes
Cilantro

  1. Holy crap. That looks great. But give yourself some credit. You did MUCH more than just throw some seeds in the ground.

    I love pickles.
