Guess my garden is about like most of you guys.

Most plants did fairly well.....but this early hot weather and no rain is taking an early toll on the plants.

I probably have ~ 12+ gallon size bags in the freezer [besides what we have eatened] of green beans, squash and zucchini. The squash and zucchini plants have just about stopped producing.

I have now stopped picking the green beans..... the quality has gone down hill fast.

I have picked ~ 30 tomatoes so far and getting 3 to 5 a day now. Made a batch of Sauce Piquante a couple days ago.

Getting 8 to 10 cucumbers a day now, but the quality is starting to drop off a little.

I only picked a couple of bell peppers, then the squirrels ate what was on the plants. I then tried something to keep the squirrels from getting any more. So far it has worked well..... no more lost to the squirrels. I picked to peppers yesterday.
