Hello all! Just a quick update to let you all know what is going on with the garden this week!

Tomatoes are having a tough time with a slug invasion. Seriously, I thought the SWC would protect against that, but I was wrong. I also discovered that I planted grape tomatoes instead of roma tomatoes. Oops. I have some nice grape tomatoes coming in though.

Strawberries: It has been very wet this summer, so there is a little issue about that. Good news though, the basket that I replanted in the mound of manure is finally flowering. Joy! Looking forward to tasting one. I had one strawberry, but I gave it to the wife to try.

Peppers: I lost one, it went mouldy. Damn, looks like I am going to have to be more vigilant.

Cucumbers: Joy! Two of the plants have FINALLY taken. Now I am going to have to start think trellis, because I have 1000 blossoms. A few here and there.

Beans: I have given up on these.

Thyme: Is overtaking the planter. LOL. I love thyme though, so it is all good.
