a lazy summer
my summer has not been as productive for gardening as i had hoped. right now i’m waiting for the raspberries and strawberries to stop fruiting so i can tear out that whole corner of the plot and plant fall stuff. i guess i should’ve tried to do that back in the springtime, but i was so excited that i might have berries of my own that i figured i’d just let the plants get as big as possible. now they kind of look like shit! oh well! they’ll probably be all gone within a month and i’ll finally get to build the raised beds i’ve been planning on.
the peas and lettuce are doing incredibly well though, considering it’s july. i picked my first peas on july 5th. i think last year once they started forming pods i had about 2 or 3 weeks of harvesting. every plant that’s gone in has at least 2 or 3 flowers on it.
here’s some pictures from the last few months!
