George's raised garden bed July 15 2009

After a week or so of nice sunny warm weather, the raised garden is looking pretty good with lots of green tomatoes on the beefsteak, yellow boy, mystery tomato plant and a big beef plant. Zucchinis are small but growing every day. We seem to have been spared the blight that has hurt many of us here in the NorthEast but we will be watching every day. Thanks for watching and please feel free to subscribe and leave questions/comments and especially answers! This is my first year doing this and I'm learning more every day! I appreciate your help! Peace. -George from Rye, NY USA

Thanks Miss Woot! I'm having a blast watching the garden grow...I finally harvested a nice zucchini...most of them started to rot after they got to 5-6 inches but I added some lime to the soil and think I got it fixed now. My tomatoes are finally starting to turn red and it wont be long till I'll be having tomato sandwiches everyday for lunch and dinner! :) Appreciate your comments. Cheers. -George

Its looking good. Your cayenne peppers will turn red as they mature.

Thanks...the garden is finally looking well due to the recent sunshine and warm temps here in Rye, NY. I'll let that pepper turn red and let you know how hot it gets! I appreciate your comments! -George

Those cayenne peppers start out green and turn red when they ripen. They're edible at any age though. I'm amazed at the sheer height of your tomatoes. Holy crap that's impressive! Very cool. :)

Thanks Ray! I'll keep the cayenne pepper on the plant till it turns red...yes, my tomato plants are taller than I but thats not saying much...I'm only 5' 7"! heh heh...I like the way you let yours run free...I just don't have the room for that so I stake 'em and pull those suckers! :) -George
