Garden

I gotta say, I'm really disappointed in my garden this year.  The super cold spring got me off to a late start and now the summer just seems to be up and down, up and down.  Just the other night we had temps in the low 50's.  Maybe in the high 40's at night.  And then sometimes during the day it gets muggy and my plants seem to be dying from heat exhaustion.  I water my garden like every other night and it's just so hit and miss right now.  VERY FRUSTRATING!

So here's an update:
Tomato plants - The early girl.  I think I've pulled off about 10 tomatoes so far.  They are small but very yummy.  The big boy - Finally producing nice red tomatoes. Haven't tried one yet but will this weekend.  The grape tomatoes are growing like made and so far are the winners of the season in producing yummy food for us.

Cucumbers - I planted 3 plants this year.  1 boston picker and 2 hybrid's.  I'm not in love with the hybrids.  I am loving the Boston pickler but but it's just not producing like it did last year.  The only thing I can think of is that cucumbers just don't do well in pots.  I'll have to google it but that's what I feel like is happening.  Or maybe I should have fertilized it more.  Who knows.  Just so frustrating!

Radishes - Don't know what's going on with them.  I planted 12 right in the beginning of the season and they grew like mad.  Now, they just aren't growing.  I don't know if they are just sensitive to the weather conditions cause like I mentioned above.  The weather has been all over the place this summer.

Strawberries - 3 strawberry plants producing pretty much nothing.  Last year I had one plant and it did so well.  Just makes no sense.

Lettuce - DUD!  I gave up weeks ago.

Basil - Thai basil, not looking so good.  It keep flowering like every other day.  I can barely keep up with it.  Sweet Basil - Looking good and growing well.  I got this guy down.  I prune him when he gets big and 2 seconds later it's growing back.

Dill - this thing flowers quick too.  Just can't seem to stay on top of this plant.  Bummer since I like dill on Salmon.

Good thing I've had other successful years with growing my garden otherwise, if this was my first year, it would probably be my last as well.  Pictures to come!
