What's Growing?

My cilantro took off and left me in the dust. It flowered and went to seed before I could use any. I put a mesh bag over one of the seed clusters to see if I could collect any of the seeds for next year. 

I harvested a few turnips and rutabaga along with some garlic and small onions. And as you can see I have plenty of tomatoes coming in.

Found this cool dragonfly as I picked tomatoes.

Unfortunately, our spicy pepper plants are super abundant. Neither G nor I love spicy peppers. I only wanted to plant one spicy pepper plant, thinking that amount would be perfect for making salsa, but G got some for free from the garden center and we planted all of them. I planted a bunch of bell pepper plants too, but they have not been doing much of anything this year. 

As you can see the ratio is way off. The peppers I'm holding in the right of the picture are the only bell peppers we have. Everything in the green tote is spicy!

Our cucumbers are done. The strange mildew has won and the vines are giving up. 

The carrots are growing but not ready to harvest yet. We're still getting a few zucchini and it looks like we might have a couple watermelon coming. Otherwise, it's all tomatoes!
