 Garden 2026

Update 4


Things are moving along in the garden.  I have run into a couple of problems - the major one is a fungus that is attacking my tomato plants.  I keep cutting off the affected leaves and then spray it all with an organic fungicide.  I don't think I am winning . . . time will tell.  The other issue is bugs - leaf miner bugs.  I have never had those before and didn't even know what it was until I googled it.  I remove the leaves they are on and it seems like I am seeing less of them now so maybe I am winning that one - I think . . .
 
Here is the front view of the garden (greenhouse on the right and fenced in area on the left).  NOTE:  the greenhouse is only a partial greenhouse.  The roof has been removed and one wall has been removed - the wall that borders the fenced in garden.  The fence is attached to front and back ends of the greenhouse.  It has worked well in keeping the critters out.


This is a view of the inside of the fenced in garden:


Here's the closeup!
 


 


 


 

 


 





 


 


 

I have been able to harvest a few things so far:  7 zucchini, 4 banana peppers and 1 radish

 

And there is more to come!

 


The bees are visiting the yard, so the plants are being pollinated!

  


Getting excited to see what's next to pick!
