This is my first year growing corn and I had rabbits trample some of mine over, they even ate the tops off of some of them when they were young.. I found out that corn is just as hardy or maybe even more hardy then Cannabis.. All the ones that were trampled over I staked back up and they survived, the ones they ate the heads off when they were babies ended up still growing out as well.. Very hardy plants it seems.

Here is one of the Canna ladies this year, she still has a few months to go, but she's already over 7ft tall and just as wide, she wont finish until November..



Here is a Roadkill OG "not the best pic"

It is! Its been so cool experience. Im not too familiar with outdoor growing and first it was a bit weird to give a control to mother nature cause usually im the one who push the buttons for more/less heat/humidity etc. So much learning about everything.

There is also another strain which is going to be massive or atleast thats what seed pack says! Looks like onion in the bush right now.

Very nice, I love growing onions and garlic! This is the first year I didn't prepare my veggie beds and I really miss it, although not so much during this heat wave lol.

My potatoes are over 4' tall,Ive staked them up but their falling over covering other plants.
Can I just cut back some of it?

I gave some super thrive to my sunflowers and now some of them have up to six flowers coming per plant. (only 3 in pic, rest are in stem) Most of them only have one. Any ideas is this really cause of super thrive or is it strain depent? I have grown just those basic yellow ones on my balcony and these are some different mixed color plants.


This one has crazy super wide flower, not symmetrical at all.


These yellow ones looks more regular

Heavy rains sanded most of my late planting. The melons and Arm cukes are the only thing to look halfway decent. They both need side dressing.

Everything but the peppers are mostly done. I do have another round of tomato plants about ten inches high. Need to make a couple of raised beds at the sandhill to put them in.

This was about a week ago, and I have about that many more that need picking now. We made four or five bottles of pepper sauce, and a couple three dozen poppers.

Yup they all opened up! The stalk of the plant was like a soda can.

From a couple years ago. I have a bunch all over the garden this year. There are lots of varieties of sunflowers.

Haha nice! I got one more strain in my garden which is only like 1ft tall. I had to strip some leaves off because it was shading other flowers. I find out that there was tons of nodes on stem. Have no clue are those going to be flowers or what but time will tell.

Wow thats a weird looking plant nice!

This years Sunflowers. These are all volunteers.





That big mess is one of my radish experiments I let go to seed. I left it because the bees love the flowers and then the birds eat the seed pods.

Here comes the fruit!

Guarding the fig

Almost drowned some stray kittens and their momma today. Took me a minute to figure out why my plants were crying when I started drenching the planter

sorry no kitten photos. I didn’t want to stress out momma any more. Left her some water n food.

my garden grows…cats

Mound soil up around the stems as they get taller.. you'll produce more ..

Everything is really starting to ripen. The cucumbers are out of hand, watermelon fattening up,

The cabbage is solid.

The tomatoes are doing well this year. Will be another nice harvest in the morning.



Safe to say the garden is in full production mode.
