Default tnkrer's 2016 garden

Repeating tomatoes and cukes that we have liked over last 3-4 years
Tomatoes - Neves Azorean Red, Sweet Ozark Orange, Indian Stripe, Cherokee Green, sungold, black cherry, super sweet 100
Cukes - poona kheera, burpfree and boston pickling for cukes
Trialing new peppers and hoping that this year I find more success with peppers, though did not do well at seed starting
orange bell, orange snack, cubanelle, flavorburst, maxibelle, earlired, mild jalapeno. (many are bonnies bought at box store since my attempts at growing from seeds failed miserably. Its weird that I succeed so well at tomatoes and greens and fail miserably at peppers)
ichiban eggplant
greens - chard, kale, arugula, bibb lettuce
herbs - rosemary (overwintered), basil, spicy oregano, sweet mint
and some beans to be named later

tomatoes, peppers, greens and herbs are being hardened. planning to plant out greens and tomatoes over next couple of weeks.
cukes are sprouting. beans not obtained yet

a few pictures of plants hanging out in sun

tomatoes are in a raised bed? what is the whitish sheeting on the sides?
How did the RGGS work for you last year?

Looking great,but I'm a weather addict and temps to drop by tomorrow and here where I am predicted snow and rain showers tomorrow night.

I'm so glad to see that you are growing Orange Bell peppers,one of my all time best peppers.

I don't expect Rob to bring over my tomato seedlings until about the first of June when Freda will set them out,they will already be hardened off,but too many times there have been late frosts and I have no way to protect them.
