i will get some pics soon, the only thing doin bad is my corn i got about six good ears and then the rest are now rotting as they grow so they are shit now and the green beens growing up the corn are so heavy that the corn is breaking from the weight, but every thing else is doin great i have harvested well over 50 cucumbers and lemon cucumbers with alot more to come, i have gotten about 200 Cayenne, some bell peppers onions, i will harvest my first cantaloupe here soon with more on the way and water melons to. i have left a few radishes to seed so i dont have to buy them next year. i also planted some sqaush a few weeks ago that is doin good, along with some swiss chard. i will try to get picks tomorrow to post up.
thanks for stoppin by whodat.

all right its been along time since i updated this so i guess i will now.
i tore up my corn cuz it had all types of probs so i ripped them out i got 5 ears of of them before they went to shit. i got about 100 cucumbers off a cucumber plant they seem to have stopped now and same with the lemons cucumbers they produced about the same and have stopped producing now. my oninons stayed small about a golf ball sizr for some reason but they are very strong and flavor full much more then the big onions and store bought ones. i have got about 300 Cayenne so far and still counting. my biggest Cayenne plant was 4 1/2 ft tall. ive gotton about 50 bell peppers they didnt get very big either they all are about the size of a base ball some bigger and are also very strong in flavor and aroma. i planted 2 zucchini last month at about a 1/2 ft and they just blew up in size they are giving me good sized zucchini still and i just harvested 2 more today. the garden now has powder mildew every where but thats ok cuz the garden is almost done. i also got 4 delicious cantaloupe from one plant. my water melon is still growing theri is only one for some reason. i have harvested aroung 100 radish seeds for next year. here is some pics.

I went way over board on my first veggie garden. I had a 15' x 20' garden raised about 3' and by the end of spring I could barely walk through it! It was also surrounded by a 6.5' wire fence that had beans, peas and cucumbers growing all over it. I was giving vegetables to anyone who wanted them because I had way more than I could eat! Nothing beats fresh veggies and herbs-- night and day difference to the dried stuff when cooking. I bonsai too man, I think it's helped me with my LST! Happy growing MC, cheers.
