Garden is Cooking
Today we removed the walls of water from the tomato plants, and wrestled them into their cages. We already had some ripe tomatoes hidden beneath the protective walls! I can highly recommend the walls of water, our tomato plants are huge and healthy, where most others are half the size. Plus, getting ripe tomatoes in the first week of July is a first for us here in Colorado.
We’ve also been making good harvests of Rainbow Chard, Collard Greens and Sweet and Snap Peas. Onions are producing well, and we harvest some tops as scallions here and there. Herbs of course are going strong, and my Cascade and Centennial Hop bines are going nuts. The East Golding Hops may not make it, however. All in all, this is the best start to a new garden I think we’ve ever had.
