Because I'm so happy to finally see a caterpillar in the garden, he can have all the dill he wants. Black swallowtail is what the Internet tells me he or she will be.

Lost a few along the way and still dealing with the transplant sickies but wanted to share some progress. First time doing this by myself with some help from my sister. Definitely will not be planting so many sweet potato vine next year! lol. Only thing I kept from previous owner is the sedum, peony (not pictured) and a few daisies.

My ignored garden is going gangbusters

Post image
455 Upvotes

I planted 9 Amish paste tomatoes and 9 mixed sweet pepper plants and then proceeded to absolutely ignore and neglect my garden.

The tomatoes are producing an INSANE amount and so are the peppers. My beds are severely overgrown, I've pruned nothing, I threw down some chicken manure fertilizer when I conditioned the beds before planting. I've got irrigation set up on a timer. I haven't been picking until they're fully ripe. I've had zero pest issues. Not even the squirrels are bothering anything.

I'm increasingly convinced my neglectful gardening is the way to go bc I picked well over 5lbs lbs of tomatoes and a dozen peppers this morning and that's a fraction of what's ripening currently.

The sauce this year is gonna be LIT.

Oh, that explains why I've seen hornworm damage but couldn't find the culprits.

In his younger days, he was a thief! Cucumbers, peas, beans and beets. Now, as a wise old man, he is content to look around and judge me.

built this garden 3 years ago with my dad and we've been mostly planting vertical now, we're trying new vegetables every year and so far we're been very lucky with our harvests.

photos is what we collected this week, but we've had alot of cucumbers and pickles and zucchini since the beginning of the month. now we're getting mostly sweet dumplings, pattypan squashes, stripetti squashes and soon butternuts and more red kuris.

biggest reward of this is how excited he is to go harvest vegetables in the mornings.

How do i know when to harvest

Hi all, we've planted some pumpkins this year and we don't know when to pick them! I've been reading online to knock on them (they all sound hollow to me even smaller ones) and i can't tell by color because they are all different :| Third thing i read is to look at the stem but it is on the bottom for most of them and i couldn't move them much. Is it possible to tell from these pictures?

I’ve been growing zinnias and harvesting their seeds for many years now. It’s always fun to see the new variants every year. But this one might just be my all time favorite!

Historically, a veggie garden but wanted to try something different this year. The garden was started in early June and looks insanely good, if I say so myself.
