August 17, 2012

Today I picked the first Cherokee Purple tomato.  We had it for breakfast.  There is also a San Marzano tomato just about ripe.  The Stupices and Orange Kings are ripening sporadically. 

There is a flower on the second planting of zucchini, a female one.  So just as extra insurance, I used a brush to pollinate it.  As I did so, I noticed a honey bee just arriving in the flower.  As soon as I'm sure we have squash coming, I'll pull the earlier plants.
