We were able to harvest for the first time in two months after sowing the garden.
-
The 6th week after planting the seedlings, the first harvest!
What did you harvest? -
We picked some okra, green beens, mini tomatoes, cucumber and eggplant.
The sweet potatoes aren’t ready yet, but it looks like we’ll have a good crop. - I ate one mini tomato, it was soft and tasted sweet! What’s for dinner tonight?
- We’re going to have okra and eggplant miso soup for dinner this evening as well as a salad.
-
But you don’t like okra right?
You should try it, after all if you don’t eat it what will you have? -
I have tried it, that’s why I don’t like it.
Tonight, I’ll just have some clam chowder that I have in the cupboard.
That will suit me fine.
Don’t forget, we’re also having a salad made with the other garden vegetables and I like salads. - Did you get a lot of green beans this time?
-
No, not so many.
Next year we’ll grow something different.
We have to make our space count because we have so little of it. - What plants are good for limited space?
-
Tomatoes, okra, green peppers, eggplant, and cucumber grow well in limited space.
The sweet potatoes grow very well. -
How about Halloween pumpkins?
Do they taste good? -
That’s a good idea! They taste good, if prepared properly.
We’ll think about that for next year. - Yeah, pumpkin pie for next years Halloween.
-
That and perhaps more.
We’ll just have to see what we can get out of the garden!
