Already picked 5 tomatoes. I put em in at the end of February. Bell peppers are producing too as well as chili peppers. The rain we've gotten this spring has really helped. I made another little bed so my daughter could plant some pumpkin seeds she got from the one we carved for Halloween. The pumpkin plants are going crazy!!
Good luck w/ your & your daughter's garden.

When is it too late to plant?

Ducktrickster 05-04-2012 09:05 PM

Check out the lsu ag center website. They have all the planting times.

I'll do that, thanks.

IMO..... if you can plant in the next week or 2, the plants should grow good if we get normal rain and we don't get 95 F temperature in June or July.

We are getting at the very end of the planting season for tomatoes. When you plant too late, the blossoms will fall off b/c they cannot handle the heat too well.... even the heat set varieties. I would say that if you are going to plant, plant within the next week and that would be the latest. I work for the LSU AgCenter.

I have not been home enough this year to even start mine. Sometimes, I think I should not even think about planting one anymore. Last year I had a good garden and was really looking forward to this year. Then work got crazy and well there you go. Missed another year. Thanks for posting ya'll gardens at least I get to see one on here.

By the way. There is no such thing as to many tomatoes. There is always someone out there willing to take them off your hands.

Nice looking gardens

My tomato plants are huge and laying on the ground they are so heavy with tomatoes. Picked my first cucumber yesterday and picked a zucchini last week. Damn cucumbers and zucchini looks like a jungle back there. Egg plants are blooming canteloupes are blooming and so are bells and jalaps. Bout another week ima have to pick about 40 tomatoes.

arent they supposed to turn red before you pick em?

SaltyShaw 05-08-2012 05:25 PM

Not always I don't think.....

Top Dawg 05-08-2012 06:40 PM

Sure it wasn't a mild plant?

DannyI 05-08-2012 07:32 PM

That size I would think they be hot, give em a little more time and see what happens.

Shawn Braquet 05-08-2012 09:05 PM

Ive never found cayennes to be hot unless dried out and chopped, now tobasco peppers can carry heat, ive planted tobasco next to some jalapenos and it made that jalapeno plants peppers hotter than the others

Here's a picture of my zucchini/squash hybrids on the left and golden egg squash on the right. Great tasting, heavy producers and really brightens up my garden and makes it a lot easier to find than green zukes.

WoW, those thing are huge next to Captain Jack Sparrow's full grown Parrots.

This is the first year in 5 or 6 years that I dont make a garden. I am really missing it, but I really dont have time for it.

Garfish 05-09-2012 08:12 AM

Nice harvest Beach Bum.
