Veggies are really coming now. Not bad for an 8' x 12' garden.
My first tomatoes are starting to ripen.
My tomato plants have reached 6 feet in height from the ground now and the top are covered in new flowers.
Here you can see how well the horizontal tomato cages are working. The only maintenance is threaded side branches back into the mesh.
My pepper plants stand tall in front of the tomatoes. I have a couple bell pepper plants, and the rest split between banana peppers and cayenne peppers.
We picked the rest of the onions today. They seem to die earlier and get more weeds when I don't mulch with straw. Still, not a bad harvest -- some of the onions were 3" across.
Second harvest of peppers yesterday.
First harvest of peppers a couple of weeks ago.
My three helpers that help me pick veggies and pull weeds.
