The first radish is up, it's a French breakfast heirloom. They were planted 13 days ago along with the sugar snap peas, arugula, spinach, beets, and other radish types.

There have been 58 (F) growing degree days based on a 43F base mean temp here this year, which is more of a fruit tree blossom thing at that base temp, but it's what I keep track of. Accumulated degrees above that daily mean temp base.

Sweet and Hot peppers, and a tray of Maximilian Sunflowers. Also some Shrubby St. John's wort that sprouted after spending a week alternating in the freezer and refrigerator with the sunflower seeds. Peppers were just thinned by the clippers...

A small but meaningful milestone today — I repotted my Pink Lady apple seedling (Malus domestica 'Pink Lady') into a bigger pot to give its roots more room to grow. 🌱 The seed came straight from a Pink Lady I was eating — too good not to try! Apple seeds don't grow true to the parent, so this little tree will likely produce something entirely its own. It might take years before it ever flowers or fruits, but that's exactly what makes growing from seed so exciting.

Een kleine maar betekenisvolle mijlpaal vandaag — ik heb mijn Pink Lady appel zaailing (Malus domestica 'Pink Lady') verpot naar een grotere pot zodat de wortels meer ruimte krijgen. 🌱 Het zaad kwam rechtstreeks uit een Pink Lady die ik aan het opeten was — te verleidelijk om niet te proberen! Appelpitjes groeien niet identiek aan de moederplant, dus dit boompje zal waarschijnlijk iets heel eigens produceren. Het kan jaren duren voor hij ooit bloeit of vruchten draagt, maar dat is precies wat kweken vanuit zaad zo spannend maakt.

I've been looking back at the 2025 veg gardening trials, the successes and the failures. It was a challenging season! Read about what I grew on the blog: https://bit.ly/4jEkVpQ

I grew this bountiful #GroundCherry plant from seeds collected from last year's #VolunteerPlant. I dug a volunteer ground cherry plant out from a sidewalk crack, last year & transplanted into a pot. That plant provided loads of #fruits. I saved 2 of the largest fruits for sowing this year's plants - gave several seeds away too.

Picked more tomatoes yesterday and some peppers today.

There was about 10 lbs / 4.5 kg of tomatoes total, mostly Amish Paste but I picked the red cherry tomatoes too. All but 8 of the sweet Red Marconi peppers were sliced up and put in the dehydrator.

The last two days of garden harvest. I looked at the small melon bed today and found a ripe melon, then another, and another, and more... Picked all the fully red Marconi sweet peppers and all the paste tomatoes I could find that were ripe.
