Oh my.

There's miles of photographs; it's worth taking a look.

Pictures from my garden this year (Updated 7/16 new pics)
 
Hey Gardening Group, felt inspired to share some pictures from my garden I took today. I got my first ripe tomato today, which beats my personal record of July 3rd, thanks in part to a hot, dry spring (usually not the case, most tomatoes in our climate don't ripen till August even).

I've been gorging on fresh lettuce salads, broccoli, chard, beets, spinach and peas already. Soon will be getting tomatoes, peppers, squash, cukes, potatoes, beans, etc. 

Of course, since he's one of the Big Three running Skins's island, the primitives kiss ass in their comments.

For those who aren't aware, while Skins and Lord Marblehead EarlG live around Washington, D.C., Elad lives near Portland, Oregon.

Well, at least now we know why the Dead DUmmy forum doesn't get updated in a timely manner.

Had tomatoes since early June. Put up peas yesterday. My squash haven't produced this year like in the past...we're in a drought.

Planted bi-color corn this year for the first time, Froze about 200 ears of corn. I ate one raw. That corn is like eating candy it's so sweet.

8. I got a new hoe this year.

Different design and it's amazing. I never could quite figure out how to use a traditional hoe. I'm particularly enjoying getting rid of the clover that would take over every year and was impossible to pull out by hand.

I think a lot of DU males have that problem.

Hi 5 Flippy! In regards  to the Knuckleheaded DUche,  WTF? How hard is it to figure out a gardening  tool? You just have to use some physical effor... Oooooohhh. There's  the problem right there.  Something that requires  effort, and we know DUche's stance on that.

Have any California DUers had the courage to post some version of GFY? Hemp with high levels of THC is a very thirsty plant, and California DUers have probably had to cut back how much they grow to avoid detection.
