Beets, the last of the strawberries and peas.


Garlic. I hosed the garlic down because the roots had dried cow compost sticking to it pretty good and I could not brush it off.

That’s what I thought as well! I’m really impressed with that bush. It looks really healthy and now that I know that the berries taste great it might be worth propagating…

Not actually a pick of the day…maybe a pic of the day. This is one odd looking asparagus. Anyone have an idea what mighr cause this? (No herbicides or pesticides are used on it).:+1:

It is so nice to see the pictures of veggies from everyone. :smiley:
My squashes somehow only had opened male flowers, and the occasional female one dried up from the heat, so we removed the plants. The only reliable producers are cherry tomatoes. We still have some green bean and snow pea.
Fortune plum: started dropping from the heat so I picked some. The inside is first yellow, and then turns red, soft, and much sweeter after a few days on the counter. Very good cold from the fridge, freestone, and the skin is not sour.

Just want to mention . . .
‘Sweet Slice Cucumber’. This is my new favorite cucumber. It truly is sweet. And not many seeds. Burpless, too.
I also am growing ‘Green Crisp’ and ‘Burpless Beauty’. Neither of those come close to the flavor of ‘Sweet Slice’.

I love those zucchini they are much easier to keep track of in my opinion (no baseball bats hiding under the leaves!) And they stay relatively seedless for quite some time. I like them for fried zucchini and I want to try using the big round slices for a base for zucchini pizza. Here are a few of mine this year, just started harvesting this week:
