VEGE PATCH. What's growing in yours?

[silver]

Tied up some tomatoes to see how they go

put in some sweet corn from our saved seeds

little dwarf beans (foreground)
Zucchini in behind the pineapple plants

cucumbers

firing off even though the plants are small still

I recon the garlics gotta be forming well in under there

plenty of lettuce seed there to spread around (and save)

potatoes are growing well in the composter

And....
hows this for a sea of little common mangoes (if they all hold hey)

Looking nice, and I am eating what I can... as much as I can

G'day Silver, I'm still waiting for the garden bed maker as he can't get supplies if the hi tensile metal used for the sides of the "U" shaped raised bed......
You're making me jealous.

Luckily jealous is as jealous does Jaros.... so you should end up with a great veggie patch mate

I hope so mate. I grew up eating home grown veg. where my father used to go fishing and catching heaps of Carp. He chopped them up and laid the beds with fish bits and grew the best Cauli and Cabbage and Silverbeet etc the quality you would never buy at a greengrocer. Our house in Noble Park Vic. was beside the now defunct Yarraman Creek-it's in pipes now. Great market garden soil.

I knew an old bloke that netted mullet, and minced them up for chook feed.... my problem would be not being a good enough fisherman.

(Bugga... should I be saying fisherperson nowadays.....not)

 

[Jaros]

All we used as bait for Carp was tinned sweet-corn -always worked the fish commit suicide.

Just saying, I looked up that asparagus can be harvested for 10 weeks. So I'm going to extend my harvest time from beginning of August right out to mid October, but I'm letting all the smalls that are coming up go to fern. I don't mind eating it for an extra two weeks, some of the little seeds I dropped in(and others that fell by themselves) must be coming up now too, will see how it goes and edit in a photo soon from the old phone.

Thank goodness ya don't need a sim card to access wifi from an old phone (they clipped my sim card to make it a nano card) cause my old card won't ever fit back in. But it can still take photo's and access the net.

Ta-daaaa !

Green house vegies going well.

 

[Jaros]

That looks like you have done a LOT of things right. Tried a green house up here and got crispy fried lettuce and cabbage leaves.
You're gunna love that flavour straight from the garden bed......yumm.

 

[Mackka]

My lettuce are going nuts, the new Black Russian Tomatoes have flowers on them and the Coriander has gone to flower and seed. Silver can i take the green seeds, put them into an envelope and they will dry out or will they go moldy?
Cheers
Mackka

 

[Jaros]

Without being cannabilistic what do the Black Russian Tomatoes - what do they taste like?

 

[Mackka]

Magnificent, you will never eat another variety. You should grown some in the new garden mate.

Mackka I have the weed blanket and the wire to confine the bed from possums etc. I will also spread a screen across the top. The builder is still waiting for supplies of hi tensile corrugated iron for the walls.
Tic, tic, tick.
