Mid-June Garden Update

Time to gloat about the garden...it's doing great this year! I learned some important lessons like planting stuff earlier and making sure to weed and fertilize. It DOES make a difference. Fine, everything I read and heard was right. I like to learn the hard way! The garlic has been harvested with great success...except I'm dreading making one of those braids (dreading is an appropriate adjective because whatever I make will look like a dread). With the big space gap left by the garlic I decided to plant some rainbow carrots and parsnips (from seed) for Fall. This is a gamble but I wanted to experiment. Previous carrot and non-potato root veggie attempts have been unsuccessful. Fingers crossed! Big green tomatoes are popping up on basically all of the 5 or 6 bushes, so I'm expecting quite a bounty there...next month we'll be poppin off the chizzain me thinks. Cilantro was tricky to get going in the herb garden but I think we now have success. Peas are going nuts, can't pick them fast enough...Anton is eating them off the bush each night so I don't have to worry about him getting his veggies (another reason to love warm weather!). Marionberries are going to be wild this year too. (insert crack smoking DC mayor joke here). Peppers are looking peppy. Raspberries are bushy but no fruits yet. Kale has recovered from the May cabbage worm attack. Richard Persimmons are showing themselves. We have 2 VERY active plum trees...one old big one in the backyard brought back to life with fertilizer (Colin's doing!). Apples be blowin up for a Fall release date. In flower news the dahlias have bloomed, at least the pink ones...more to come. Flower picking season has begun! I was working with some limited resources in the below video pix...pre-dahlia bouquets.
