Saturday Garden Report

We finally got some rain in Phoenix…can I get an AMEN?  We actually got a couple of days of evening rain and right now it looks like something may be heading our way again.  Yahooo!

So let’s move onto the report!

First, let us have a moment of silence for the cucumbers…they have been pulled and added to the compost pile.  That nasty heat wave in June just fried them and I couldn’t get them back.

First up on the report today – the cherry tomatoes.  I cut these back almost 2 weeks ago and this plant is coming back with a vengeance.   If you look closely you’ll see a little yellow blossom.  🙂

The Pink Brandywine is also showing some promising growth.

But the Golden Jubilee seems to be going the way of the cucumbers…

I finally decided to put a cage around the green bell peppers.  I think the bird issue is getting better.

The sweet potatoes are making a come back.  Hoping to serve these at Thanksgiving!

And last…but NEVER least….drum roll please

T H E    W A T E R M E L O N S!

These grew more than 2 ft in length in one week!  They are 3.8 ft from the box.  YOWZERS!
