Update for week 14 – sadly beets were a bust. These were planted from seed and it was apparent that they went in too late. The heat didn’t allow for them to grow. In the ‘bust’ category also – garlic chives, swiss chard, brussel sprouts. Since I’m listing the issues here, I can also let you know that the chamomile didn’t sprout at all and the tat soi isn’t growing. Lesson learned, though, on growing these items in colder weather and I’ll be ready for fall planting! Since its so hot, nothing further will be planted until August (after consulting my experts – thanks Kirsten and Lynne!) We’re pulling carrots tomorrow and the preview today shows tiny carrots will be in the offing…the heirloom radishes were bigger!
Now the good news! …

Holy Mole! The first one is ready. How exciting is it to pick a 9″ pepper? I’t as long as the zucchini.
And did I mention zucchini? …
