July 2014 Garden Update

Still not happy about the low yield of a non wheat bale crop, but I am able to get something going. This week I lost the broccoli, most of the cabbage, the older corn, and the broccoli rabe to pests and too much moisture.It has been overly wet these past few weeks and with the automatic sprinklers on, the yard is starting to get slimy.
 




Pole Beans

Most of the sections of garden are a hodgepodge of things this set has tomatoes of varying types, basil, oregano, and cucumber

Love my bees!

Roma type tomatoes

By this time last year I had triple the amount of zucchini. But at least I get some.




We have a lot of aphids this year, Working on getting rid of them, the seem to like the okra, so I don't get as many pretty blooms







Corn, sunflowers, pumpkins, and cantaloupe on side of house. Had to net up these to prevent movers from destroying the crop.


Front yard



Elephant ears.....compare the leaf with the door....YES they are HUGE!
— in Augusta, GA.



 Cantaloupe and watermelon weave their way all through the front garden.


Joshua with the giant elephant ears to give you scale as to how big they are.
