Carrots and Onions, Tomatoes and Peppers June 28, 2013

It is time for Salad Days again!
I know this is not much to show for the June Salad Day,
but salad harvesting has slowed down since the lettuce bolted.
The Spring garden (onions and carrots) is nearing the end of production.
The Summer garden (tomatoes and peppers) is just getting started.
.
'Little Fingers' Baby Carrot seeds were sown February 18.
Onion bulbs were set out March 28.
The Sun Sugar Tomato plant, a very sweet cherry-type tomato, was set out May 8.
Sweet Cayenne pepper plants were set out May 9.
.
And now for Sky Watch Friday:
The Tomato plants' view of Thursday morning's sky.
Alas, these clouds moved on eastward taking their rain with them.
But, truthfully, another day without rain was good news
for farmers harvesting the Winter Wheat or baling their Hay.
.
Have a wonderful week-end!

  1. I like the look of your tomatoes! Mine are only just starting to flower - I only grow them outside (no greenhouse) and it's been a slow start to spring never mind about summer!

    Thanks for joining in Salad Days this month :)

  7. I checked the garden at work today and saw that the zucchini are growing, but not much else yet. Your sky looks a lot like ours did this afternoon and early evening. The sun finally come out again after 7, but not for long. So glad we have a dry stretch coming up!
