July 13th Update

Apologies to those who are anxious to know how plot#10 is these days. Had a few days of a slow internet connection where it became frustrating when attempting to blog. Since this is not supposed to be a stress inducing activity, it was put on hold!

But now, here we are.... First a few pictures from the balcony. Remember, we have a few containers growing and a Topsy Turvy, really all due to the fact that we had too many plants in plot #10 and needed to spread them out. I've enjoyed watching the containers make their progress since I can do it while enjoying a morning cup of coffee or as I read a book.
Topsy Turvy on balcony. It's amazing how it grows upside down! A few flowers are present (along with my beach/bath towels) and I'm confident that the tomatoes will be seen soon.

The taller or "jen" container on the balcony. Waiting to see the first tomatoes show up on this plant. Although I don't have a picture of the other container, the shorter or "tera" container, it's the one that has a few tomatoes! I was complaining this weekend how I didn't have any tomatoes on the balcony. I went out there to water today (they need constant water since it's been so hot) and I was shocked to see 2 small tomatoes hanging out!!

Tuulikki - enjoys the balcony in the summer. She's hiding in the beach sheet. Suppose she's feeling a little camera shy?!

Small Cucumber and another Squash. The Cucumber went into a small salad on Sunday morning to accompany our vegetable frittata, but I'm not sure what I'll do with the squash. Better decide soon! Especially since there will be more to harvest before the end of the week.

"Peek a Boo" Tomatillo. Making slow, steady progress.
Super Sweet Tomatoes

The next photo is from a week ago to show the growth in these two tomatoes from July 3 to July 10.
July 3 (then) July 10th (now)

A look at Plot #10. Our tomatillos are growing! They'll soon be taller than the Rainbow Spiral Supports we have for them.
