Corn is very close to harvesting and within a few days or so the majority of them should be ready for serving. I only got a couple of them so far and these were most likely the early ones that you have every season. Once most of them are ready I will probably pick them all in one day or within a couple of days consecutively.
Beans is another vegetable that happened to be ready for harvesting. Unlike corn I was able to pick quite a few beans for the first of the season. Approximately three pounds was gathered from all the vines that are growing outside. Although there are not as many beans growing this was a good number for the start of the bean harvest. I hope to get many more in the real near future.
Pumpkins, melons, tomatoes, and more are beginning to show the fruits of my labor. I have many tomatoes that are growing and they are sure starting to turn with cherry and Roma most likely the first to the dinner table.
I think the next vegetables that I will be picking include cucumbers and or peppers. I have a cucumber that is just about ready, but I want to leave out there for another day or two. I don’t want to pick it too soon before I have a chance to add lime to the soil. I don’t want to pick this cucumber and have it taste bitter.
Melons will most likely be last along with the pumpkins that I have out there. Only a couple of melons and a few pumpkins are growing for the moment. The only thing that I am waiting for are my eggplants to begin showing signs of harvest material. They do have flowers which are a good sign and hopefully they will begin producing fruit in the near future.
