I started a square foot garden this year. All the soil was fresh and new. My tomato plants are so big they pulled the cages out of the ground and are layed over now.

Fuck cages, they never work.
For serious tomato plants you need to build in some more sturdy supports.
And soaker hoses, those fuckers are worth the extra install efforts.

canned like 30+ cans of salsa so far, made from onions...12 types o peppers...cilantro...tomatillo...garlic
froze about 35lbs blueberries..the lady probably ate twice that picking
roasted and Vacuum froze about 13lbs of grille roasted and skinned assorted peppers
ate most of the rest of the garden but it is still kicking
made some pickles and dilly beans also and canned em for use after the apocalypse

And netting for the fucking birds. Those are some talkative mofos and once the tomatoes are found, the word is spread quickly.
Never had problems with bird on my tomatoes... Blueberries are another story.
I use Hog/sheep panel fence for tomato cages
last forever
galvanized so never rusts even here in wet ass oregon
I enjoy zuchinni but simply cant keep up with the production. Giving them away.
Looking forward to the spaghetti squash ripening. They pair well with the zucs.
Never wasting my time with spinach. Shut grows like a weed, turns to seed and we simply just dont eat the shit that much.
Carrots are young but can finally start eating them to thin out the patch a bit.

For the zuchinni, the little lady makes zuchinni bread/muffins and we dehydrate them with a little seasoning as dog treats.. dumb dogs dont know any better.
Spaghetti squash is always a winner. This is actually the first year in about 5 years I didnt plant any, regretting it now.
Fuck em is right. Id love to grow apricots and peaches.
Zuchinni and squash pair up nice in a garden bed. We make cakes and muffins as well but only so much freezer space.
We are happy to give veggies to people who will enjoy it. Spinich we just let people come and take what they want
The worst part is they move fruit to fruit, instead of just eating and finishing what they started. Bastards.
We actually just yanked all our zucchini plants today, all ended up with mildew. Early end to the season but we have about a dozen zucchini to eat before the stock is done.
Planning to use the space for some fall crops of carrots, cauliflower, lettuce and greens.
we give pounds of veggies to each the nearest 5 neighbors about every 2 weeks in growing season
cucumbers and zucchini are just too much to keep up with
luckily we did a small potato and sweet potato planting this year so the work is tapering off...picking/growing everything wears us out and takes a lot of time...but it is worth it for sure
Blanch and freeze. They turn tiny once you blanch them. Squeeze out the water really good. Eat all winter.
We do that with the carrots and we do freeze some spinich. Problem is lack of space, generally we keep our freezers stocked pretty full. Also like them nice and fresh.
nice, way ahead of my outdoor
mine just shot hairs 7 days ago
did the smoke and low light trigger early flower?
but very tasty
Yes. Very.
Food hoarding is a dangerous line to cross. It only takes one prolonged power outage to turn everything inside a moldy mess.I want a third freezer but the lady looks at me like
