Cucumbers and Tomatoes





 After such a mission to get my Cucumbers to grow, we have some cucumbers that are about gherkin sized. The plant still isn't as big as it would have been by now. But its producing fruit and I'm very excited that its still alive even. They are demanding a lot of water and fertilizer now.


 The tomatoes are making tomatoes but the bushes arent doing very well. I think that there might be a lot of chlorine in the water that I used to water because everything isnt doing all that well. And maybe a combination of heat as well. But we've been getting a lot of rain and they are looking better.

I have giant red heirloom tomatoes, yellow pear tomatoes and then black cherry tomatoes growing but so far only the giant red tomatoes have made tomatoes.

They other two bushes seem to be doing better than the red ones but we'll see how they go. I wanted to make canned tomatoes but maybe not this year. I really wanted a variety of tomatoes so that I can make salads more interesting. Cant wait.
