Any Fall Garden Pictures

[Mike CHS]

Very little activity in this forum but this is my favorite time of year which means a new post. The day before yesterday it was 97 degrees. Today the high is supposed to be 77.

All of the plants in this picture were planted August 12th so it was pushing the end of the season for us. The bush beans in the picture are Roma and the pole beans are Kentucky Wonder on the right and Blue Lake on the left. We haven't had any rain in two weeks and they have not been watered - just a light mulch of Cotton Burr Compost.

There is cabbage and broccoli in the beds above these but I'm not sure if the bugs are going to leave me any. Curiously there are 4 cabbage plants in the bed with the pole beans and they have not been touched.

Looking good! I hope to get some things in the ground soon...

Wow, I love the bushel basket full of beans next to the garden. The only thing I have to show for my garden is a lovely compost bin.

I need a couple of tons of compost.

I'm pleased considering this hill was more rock than dirt 4 months ago. I'm not going to say how many $ I spent on topsoil for those beans and fruit trees. My plan may get changed in the next couple of years as those little fruit trees grow.

We are supposed to get a freeze tonight so we picked all of the tomatoes we have left. I may have waited to late to save some okra for next years seed. I only have a small number that is dry enough on the vine.

Those tomatoes look Delicious, so does everything else .
Tomatoes, letas, spinach, kale, etc does not taste anywhere near as good has it did homegrown or store bought in oregon.

We had a bunch of those as Fried Green Tomatoes

Yum, yum! I love mustard greens. Around here with it being in the 80's, they would grow up and be edible soon.
