WE have a frost advisory for tonight.... My little garden is protected by where it sits.... but I am thinking I am going to start plucking things out of the garden tomorrow. I am sad to announce that my corn "miscarried" all it's potential babies. HAHAHA.
To me it looked like I was going to get three cobs of corn... but at this time of year and nothing showing for several weeks now.... I think it just wasn't meant to be. It was fun watching the stocks grow from little babies to hearty poles.
Obviously my attempt to self-pollinate did not work... and I won't bother for next year.
I threw in two potatoes that were sprouting at the end of June. I finally pulled those out 2 days ago and I found 5 potatoes.... You would have thought I found diamonds.... I was squealing with delight every time I found one. HA.
I suspect I might have missed some but I will pay the EARTH tax to the soil.
I learned a lot.... and that seems to be the thing with gardening.... every year you learn something about the plants.
I got tons of tomatoes... and in the morning... I will pick the last remaining ripe ones. I will slow roast the big ones... and do something different with the chocolate cherry ones.
bobinfaith ... My precious plant that I named BOB served me well with many little gems of goodness. Next year... I will name another chocolate cherry tomato plant after YOU. HAHA.
