Well – not cherries exactly, more like sun gold cherry tomatoes! Almost two dozen of them, beautifully ripe and really sweet! We’re moving right along in week 12!
It was also time for cubanelle peppers. We picked the first three and they were delicious – we made a pepper/tomato/cucumber salad – all with home grown produce!
The bells are coming right along too…
And here’s the spent cilantro. Just too hot to keep up, but now we’ll have coriander seed to cook with!
On the tomato front, the Silvery Firs are doing very well in their pot and the Hillbilly and Mr. Stripeys are getting huge!
I had to tie up the Hillbillys because they grew over the eggplant. You can make out the string below:
We’re not replanting empty squares right now because it’s been over 90 degrees for over a week. Very hot. So hot that we’re watering nightly with the hose instead of a cup. I don’t want anything to wilt up and die! Since the soil drains very well, I’m not really worried about over watering.
We’re hopeful that some of the Hillbillys will ripen this week. Stay tuned!
