This summer has been so great, unfortunately we haven't spent nearly us much time outdoors as we would normally like because we've been keeping Liam indoors as much as possible, but it has been well worth have a healthy and happy baby. I have really enjoyed going in our backyard check out our garden to see its progress.
We have both been fortunate enough to come from gardening families and were excited to put all the skills we learned to the test. Anyway, here are some pictures to give an update on our garden.
Our garden is producing so many cucumbers, it is great to be able to give away produce to friends, and if anyone wants to give us a canner we could even try our hand at making pickles.
In Nevada, we never managed to grow carrots very well, I'm not sure why that was, but we are certainly doing great with these carrots.
We will be picking our first watermelon very soon, it will be great.
Our peppers are doing great.
Our tomato plants have grown a lot but haven't produced as much as we thought they would, we will get a good amount eventually but they seem a little behind on the production.
We didn't plant the rhubarb, but has really grown a lot.
The watermelon and pumpkins we planted have really grown out of control, we even have the pumpkin plant invading our neighbors yard (although I don't think they've noticed).
Our complete garden, we have plans to expand the garden size and improve the watering system for next year, hopefully we can double the production.
Cheers,
Not everything was a success, here is where we planted one of our tomatoes, but it didn't make it.
