Harvest time in Texas
I took some pictures and am trying to load them.
This is a good year so far. I started late because we had a really long, cold "winter" in Texas. But I managed to have some decent harvest. Last year my favorite is Cherokee Green, Cherokee Purple, Big Beef, Mariann's Peace, Sungold and Black Cherry. This year I am adding more to my favorite list. I like KBX a lot. Lesson: Don't grow them too close. I believe if I planted them farther I could have harvest more. My plants are growing a lot of branches and leaves and are almost 10 feet tall by now to try to reach sunshine instead of setting fruit. What a waste! Cucumber are still very small, probably won't have time to set fruit. 100F this week! Corns are looking pretty good, need to protect them from birds. |
