I am so, so delighted to be providing meaty (veggie?) updates in September. Every single eggplant is thriving. All but a few peppers are thriving. At least half of my tomatoes are still kicking along, though they won't win a beauty contest.
Pictures always speak better - so here they are - with some descriptions for each row coming first.
Top row: the remains of the indeterminate varieties in 5 gallon grow bags; row of hoped for fall crop - mostly newly created dwarf X indeterminate hybrids, a mystery sent to me by a friend (which I call "Jennie" and assume it will be the variety Kimberly or similar) and the F1 between Mexico Midget and Summertime Green
second: planting trays for the fall tomatoes, mix of various fall crops (greens, beets, etc), view of the pepper rows with Okra peeking above all
third: Feherezon pepper, row of hot peppers, row of sweet peppers (showing Fire Opal's purple fruit)
fourth: eggplant Skinny Twilight, eggplant Twilight Lightning, selection of eggplant - top are Green Ghost and Listada di Gandia, below are my selections from Orient Express hybrid - Midnight Lightning, two Skinny Twilight, and Twilight Lightning (these are now finished in my view).
fifth: a pair of Lillian's Yellow Heirlooms with a Yellow White (aka Viva Lindsey's Kentucky Heirloom).
