-Performed the first "feed" of the season to all plants- a mixture of organic vegetable fertilizer, chicken manure, and fresh/new organic garden soil, all topped off with a ginormous amount of water.
-Flowers on: Cucumbers, cantaloupes, all tomatoes, the zucchini green squash(along with several squashes-in-the-making), the yellow crook-neck squash, and even the Ichiban eggplant!
By the way- squash flowers are delicious when fried up with some cream cheese, garlic, and onion stuffed inside them!
-Roma tomatoes are finally coming in!
-Caged the Cherry 100 tomato (all three now caged)
-Snap/pole beans doing incredibly well (~6-8'' of shoot growth in less than one week)
And it's odd that, despite the fact that fertilizing methods vary (Organic vs. non-) and that planting times were different, my neighbor's cucumbers and zucchinis are flowering at the exact same time as my cucumbers and squash.
On to my children!
