In the Garden with Linda

The whole family went out and worked in the garden on Saturday.  In the evening, after supper. Otherwise it’s just too hot and humid to do anything in the garden. We also held to family tradition and had ice cream when we came in from working in the garden.  🙂

Here are a few pictures I took.

We planted quite a few cucumber seeds, and we only have one plant standing. sigh.  Thankfully, we have a few blossoms on this plant. I need to plant  some more, and hopefully, they come up.

We really have had a problem with germination this year. Since it has been with several vegetables, I don’t think it’s the seeds. Cucumber, lettuce, spinach, peas, orange bell peppers, green bell peppers, green beans, broccoli, white radishes, to name a few. sigh

I had started 3 different kinds of tomatoes from seed, and we transplanted them to the garden. They have been doing well, and I found a few blossoms on the plants. I also found 5 tomato plants that a ground hog ate! sigh. We know it’s a ground hog as he was seen visiting the garden. I don’t mind if wild animals have a snack in my garden, but they really need to leave some for me! lol

I sure hope these poor tomato plants make a come back.

I have 4 zucchini plants and 2 yellow squash plants. Well, I had two yellow squash plants. One was eaten. Probably by that pesky ground hog. I need to replant that, too.

I checked on the red radishes, and saw that some of them were getting tall greens on them. I picked the biggest two, thinking I was going to get some nice, big radishes. Here’s what I got. lol

So, what’s growing in your garden?
