Wow. I haven’t even set foot in the garden in 3-4 days because of the heat then rain and I was thrilled by what I found. Our first red roma tomatoes, crooknecks and zucchini, lots of corn and more. Check it all out :thumb

And the crookneck squash siamese twin that wants to be a porn star:

I couldn’t stand it any longer, I had to pick the 3 big zucchini :lol Going to make some zucchini bread and maybe a treat for the kids and shred and freeze the rest.

Mmmm crookneck!

First Harvest

by on June 7, 2008 in Harvesting & Preserving

I noticed the radishes were looking rather large so I checked their packet and they are ready in only 30 days! Nice! So I went out and plucked the 4 biggest out of the ground.

They taste…like radishes. Better then store bought but still, I’m not a big radish fan, Chris is. Good smooth flavor to start with a bite afterwards.

The kind is White Icicle by NK Lawn & Garden. Another company I bought from before finding out about Monsanto. I still can’t find out much about them, so I won’t be buying anymore until I know it’s “Safe Seed”. But I’m going to plant more of the seed I have to have some more next month! :D
