First Fall planting

This past weekend, I managed to get a trellis completed and tomatoes trimmed and tied in frame one. Some of the cherry tomatoes are beginning to ripen. More trellises are planned this week for frames three, four and five.

This morning, I harvested mostly parsley with a little lettuce, kale, broccoli, basil, marigolds and chard. The cucumber plants are beginning to fruit. The watermelon and pepper plants are growing very slowly. Hopefully that will change as the weather warms up in August.

Also this morning, I seeded about 25 lettuce, 9 spinach, 6 chard and 16 carrots to fill up empty squares for the Fall harvest.
