June 12 Garden Update

Here are three pics of the garden today - picked more kale and chard - the chard (Bright Lights and Bientein) is peaking - yum, the kale, while still good, is starting to take on a less sweet flavour ........... california poppies self seeded


Here's something I didn't know - spinach comes in male and female versions ...... note (what I assume are) the male plants flowering, with the more robust female plants yet to flower ......
Samish is an F1 spinach, but I thought I might try saving seed and see what grows out, as it is my favourite spinach to date ..........

And a pic of some of the tomatoes ....... rather hard to see, but just amazing growth ...... look at this mega-bloom on Cheerful F2!!
