Finally getting some new growth on raspberries...im gonna hit them up again tonight..been at least couple weeks...shouldnt hurt

 

Some new growth...

 

Nice. You have limelight! Very nice.

 

Still lots time left for growth before frost

 

I ate the ripe one

 

Possums and raccoons work on ours. I set a couple live traps out there and remove more than a few each season. Hornets like the figs too.

 

Here possums and racoons come for the cat food we have out for our barn cats. Tractor supply live traps work great.

 

Coons are bad here...ive killed at least 10 this year alone

 

All heat and no rain this year in Pensacola, my cherry tomatoes are so thin and cucumbers had no chance. Only acceptable harvests have been the melons; one cantaloupe per plant and two watermelons per. I even watered every 2-3 days but wasn't enough. I have a single pepper and zucchini, three plants of each.
I put in a water barrel setup, has worked wonders. I put in a shallow well last year and was tired of pumping by June haha
First year I didn't use geotextile and won't do again... I'm over pulling weeds

 

Not the best but still good and going in spite of dry and hot conditions.

 

royal lee cherries

August pride peaches


Some red onions.

SoCal harvest for this year. We got way more peaches and cherries than the pics but pretty stoked.
Biggest russet we grew to date.

 

Tomatillos are getting ripe/ready. They are supposed to be giant but reviews said same result i got...lots flowers, not lots fruits. And not giants. There are a lot though eventhough they are small

 

7 more quarts green beans. Still got more on the way.

Tried planting another row 2 times and only had 2 plants pop up.

 

The heat and dry is upon us, abnormal rain this year that was welcome. Here anyway, not so much elsewhere. I pull the maters as they set some color now. Otherwise I gamble on insects getting them. 19 oz black krim, purple maters are my tastebud favorites .

 

Coleslaw, the recipe can be gotten from yt, Homesteading with the Zimmerman's, aka Ruthann. Very good channel for the canner in the house. And chicken lol that ventured into the garden.

 

Still only one lonely flower



A bonus though. Got a bird feeder across from the hydrangeas that the birds go nuts for. Mostly sunflower seeds. Well looks like I got a little bonus sunflowers growing



Does it look horrible and out of place? Yes. Am I seeing what happens? Also yes
