Very nice! My zucchini made 2 last week, but they rotted so I picked them off while they were still little. I noticed yesterday I have 2 more coming on strong. My squash are just vining like crazy, but no flowers or anything yet. Same thing with my eggplant. I'm starting to worry about them. My roma tomatoes are starting to make a few as are my cherries. The celebrity is getting big, but no tomatoes yet.

If your fruit is rotten off, it could be due to lack of bees to pollinate the flowers.

You could break off one of the male flowers [they are more pointed than the female flowers] and shake it over the female flowers.

My big red balls are yummy, and the only way to tell if they are ready is to fondle them. If they feel soft bite them but make sure ya lean forwards or they will drip their sweet sticky juice on the front of your shirt.IMG_3055.jpg

Well i went and break off a couple that had no fruit and had a party with the ones that did so i'll see. Also had a rub fest with the eggplant. Had 2 tomato's in containers early for the fun of it and used a cotton swab on them and that was the best i ever had container grown tomato's. Time will tell, be nice if we get some rain. Cappy what kind of plums them is you having fun with ? I think one of those would be a nice addition to my yard.

They aint Plums buba, yum-yums are a nectarine variety and very peachy in nature. Peaches don't do good here deep south, but these yum yums are going great and our lil 3 year old tree was loaded this year. Picking them is tricky we go out several times a day and fondle them. if ya feel the fruit give to a soft pinch give it a twist and it falls right off. if they still hard they are good but no where near as sweet.

Well the yum yum tree is really catching hell right now The wind is gusting rain pelting and it is swaying dangerously. I am afraid it may split and break. Hope it makes it. This is the first year we really got a bunch to enjoy I sure hope it aint the last.

The rain and strong wind leaned our lil tree over some and gave it hell too. We got most of our fruit in and passed alot out to our country folk trading network. In return for our grocery bag fruit gifts we got back red fish, speckled trout, cat fish , a sack of onions, and a pack of home smoked turkey necks. We kept enough to make a glorious pie and hot with a scoop of ice cream on top it was wellll yum yum :-D The few remaining fruit got attacked by small fly like bugs and love bugs of all things. Ask ya Dad for me if he sprays and what and when if ya dont mind. We had like 10 lbs spoil and rot bug infested in the rain.
