Earlier this week we looked at the 'Salad Rows' in the garden. Let's look in at the rest. In this photo below, in the top right corner, you can barely make out the potatoes in bucket experiment we're working on. The rest of the photo makes up a bunch of the cole crops along with some others.
Starting left to right: The first two rows are cabbage (brunswick and Jersey wakefield varieties). The next row is cauliflower (amazing and purple varieties). The next row is Romanesco broccoli. The next row is 'regular' broccoli. The next row has baby bok choy, kohlrabi, and kale.
Here are some sugar snap peas that are beginning to trellis on a hog panel I have fastened to some t-posts.
Here is a big section of sweet potatoes that I haven't harvested yet. To the right where you can see the dirt, that's where I have harvested some of the sweet potatoes to make room for planting three rows of carrots.
Below is a row of some French breakfast radishes. These grow really fast.
Here is one row of Cosmic purple carrots I have planted that are coming up. I have three additional rows of carrots (Atomic Red, Danvers half long, Uzbek Golden varieties).
I have a couple of rows of snap beans that are really producing, both Contender Green Beans and Italian Roma II beans which you see below.
Every couple days I pick a large bucket of beans. We eat them with new potatoes and butter and they are delicious. We'll begin blanching a bunch to freeze.
One thing I didn't show you is the beets and rainbow swiss chard. We had poor germination on the Bull's Blood beets. We had to get some Detroit Dark Red beets to fill in the holes in the row. Probably this weekend I'll be planting turnips, spinach and mustard greens.
