Strawberries and peas are pretty much done for the season. I’ll pull out the pea vines this week and stop watering the strawberries.
I harvested my first tomatoes today. They aren’t ripe, but they had their first hint of color and I’ve learned that if I leave them until they get ripe, squirrels take a bite out of them and then leave the rest. Cheeky buggers. So instead, these — one bigger one and two yellow grape tomatoes — will ripen on my counter. I also had to add some more stakes to my biggest tomato plant, which was leaning dangerously far into the pathway, despite already taking up two cages.
I finally found a squash plant growing in my garden. I’d put down seeds for them and for beans last month.
