I plucked and potted the last of the tomatoes and some cabbages tonight. All the tomatoes were ones that will just be extras but this will let me choose the best looking plants. Most of them could be put in bigger pots so that will probably happen soon. I also got a couple of eggplants to sprout.

This type of eggplant (Solanum melongena) is believed to be the original form that gave the plant its common English name, for obvious reasons.

... No, I haven't tried cooking with it though I use various types of Thai, Chinese and Japanese eggplants in my Asian cooking ...

Not sure if your eggplant’s ready? 🍆
One day too early = bitter.
One day too late = bland or mushy.

For rich flavor and perfect texture, here’s when (and how) to harvest

Recent harvested things from the garden.

Pulled a couple of eggplants out today, they were wilting from unknown, both on the north ends of their different beds so maybe just too wet or perfect conditions for whatever they have. They're on the burn pile now and I treated the area and other eggplants with Soil Blast.

Lots of beans but 5 times as many bean flowers.

Today's harvest from the garden, minus any zucchini because I didn't spend much time looking. Picked the largest eggplants and a ones that were on a dying stalk, 2 cucumbers, 2 yellow crooknecks, and 580 grams / 20 ounces of runner beans.
