Today is a busy day, with not a whole lot new happening at Plot 63 of the Roseville Community Garden<\/a>, so I’ll just post up the latest images, taken last night before I weeded & watered. It’s now been 50 days since I started the garden, and most of the plants are looking good…and tasting even better! Be sure to follow the link below (at the break) for more pictures of individual plants.<\/p>\n

Plot 63 at Roseville Community Garden, taken Sunday, July 8, 2012 \u2013 50 days since planting.<\/p><\/div>\n

The pepper plants (foreground)<\/em> – started from seeds – have really taken off with the hot weather.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"IMG_0170sm\"<\/a>

Some jalapeno peppers, almost ready for picking.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"IMG_0171sm\"<\/a>

Fiery Chinese pepper plant has hundreds of tiny peppers sprouting, and even more flowers blooming.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"IMG_0175sm\"<\/a>

The fennel plants are also taking off with all the warm weather. I can’t wait for the first plant to be big enough to grill!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"IMG_0173sm\"<\/a>

Tiny butternut squash are forming as the vines run rampant through the tomato patch!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"IMG_0177sm\"<\/a>

In just a matter of 10 days, the acorn squash have grown to about the size of a softball! Probably a dozen or so on this one plant.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"IMG_0163sm\"<\/a>

The rewards of hard work in the garden: a salad of sliced radish and romaine lettuce with creamy buttermilk dressing! Yum!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"IMG_0166sm\"<\/a>

More of the “bounty of the garden.” Two Black Beauty Summer Squash from my garden, and three tasty cucumbers from my garden neighbors, the Kowalski’s. Had a zingy cucumber salad with country-style ribs the other night! Thanks John & Roxanne!<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
