In spite of difficult weather, the garden is still producing. But we have gone through and cleaned out all the plants that are not thriving. Time to restart certain things. Luckily we have plenty if starts and seed potatoes waiting for round to get planted.
We tried a red mustard for the first time. Nobody knows what it tastes like, but it sure is attractive.
We are getting a nice harvest if sprouting broccoli buds. We have also Ben harvesting leaves from the extra plants that we plan to thin out.
Some of the older plants in the garden are also becoming over mature. The salad burnet visually looks lush and fine, but with the plants now older, even to young leaves are tough and not pleasant tasting. So the plants got the old heave-ho. Same with the spinach plants below.
Harvest today included spinach, red mustard, green beans, radishes, beets, snap peas, broccoli, potatoes, pumpkins. Plus chard, kale, green onions, and an assortment of herbs.
