Runner beans, two are already huge, too big to eat, I will leave them to ripen for seeds, there are more on the plants and loads of flowers.
Another cucumber ready for picking, I have one in the fridge so I will leave this one for a few days, there are loads more forming and still flowers.
Tomatoes, these from two plants, it's a poor year for them, along with home grown lettuce, we can have a salad.
Hubby took all the cuttings from the front to our local tip over the weekend, he just wanted it gone, next door did not appear, sadly she knows we will stand our ground and only verbally attacks anyone else on our property. Hubby also cleaned all the windows inside and out, nice to see them dust free, I think he was bored.
We finally have had proper rain, early this morning, it's a steady constant rain, perfect to soak into the parched soils, the last time we had rain like this was June 10th, I am hoping to see a fresh garden in the coming days.
Happy to hear that you finally got some rain! We also awoke early this AM to rain on the roof. We are about due for some, but not suffering like you are.
ReplyDeleteLovely bowl of tomatoes. I'll be picking my second crop of bush beans as soon as it dries up.
It sounds as though you might have a late flush of vegetables. That will be nice.
ReplyDeleteGlad you have had some rain. We've only had a few light showers. Our beans were terrible this year. Not sure we'll grow them next year.
ReplyDeleteThe bowl of tomatoes look nice.
ReplyDeleteRain is so very welcome :)
All the best Jan
We're having rain right now as I type! FINALLY!
ReplyDeleteOur tomatoes are not ripening very well right now. I think I will end up ripening them in the house on the window sills.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Our tomatoes have been ripening steadily but slowly over the last few weeks so I don't have a glut of them. My lettuce didn't do well this year either.
ReplyDeleteMy big beefsteak tomatoes are just starting to ripen. Have you seen the price of big tomatoes lately. We're due a few nice warm days so hopefully everything will come on leaps and bounds.
