Melon Baby

Cantaloupe...

The cantaloupes in the raised bed are finally starting to grow in, there are at least 3 of all different sizes. One is flat which is really weird but I'm excited because these should grow to full size. The ones in the container haven't grown for weeks so I picked the smaller of the two so that all the energy went into to growing one. I didn't expect any so getting 2 is amazing and 1 good would would be a miracle considering how small the container is.

Picked container cantaloupe.

A second watermelon was hiding under all of the leaves. Pulled it out so that it could get sun. The yellow on the right is where it was touching the ground.

The Accidental Pick

Sisters Birthday...

It was a beautiful and sunny day out but I didn't get to garden. It was my sisters birthday so we had plans. First it was lunch and nails then it was bar hopping so I spent my day out, resting to go out, or getting ready. I wish I'd spent it gardening because I haven't had a chance to do all the maintenance I've wanted to do since I got home.

So far I've picked a few more green beans and thinned out some carrots that weren't going to form because the roots were exposed. I did accidentally pick one carrot that was forming which was too bad but it gave me hope that I don't have carrot fly because it was forming well. Anyway, I plan on spending all day gardening tomorrow. I'm hoping the weather doesn't turn on me.

Carrots that weren't going to form, a radish, and the accidental pick.

Picked another 25 beans and still have more to pick.
