How does your garden grow update

We had a fun time this weekend harvesting from our organic garden.

We harvested our potato plants and pulled out some nice red potatoes.  We have too much nitrogen in our soil (through the manure added) for potato plants and subsequently were growing wild (apparently you need more phosphorus so the energy will be diverted to the tubers rather the leaves).  I'm using the potatoes in a recipe and will share this recipe soon.

Once again we harvested a huge basket of plum tomatoes and so I set about canning them all on Saturday - I canned 17 pints of stewed and whole tomatoes.  I still have another basket full of plum tomatoes that haven't fully ripened yet and lots more green tomatoes on the plants. We've been giving away the Brandywine tomatoes as there's no way we can eat that many.

We also cut down our cucumber plants as they were done to make way for fall planting.  I canned my final 4 quarts of bread and butter pickles for the season.  I think thats a grand total of 30 quarts of pickles.  I've given a few away but the rest is for my pickle monsters ; )

My eggplants are still growing strong and I have lots of babies growing.

Here's what I sowed yesterday for a Fall harvest:

Spinach

Lettuce

Cauliflower

Brocolli

Bak Choi

Carrots

Hope your gardens have been as plentiful for you
