Week thirty in the garden

Has it really been thirty weeks? Time sure flies when you're having fun. I think Daddy should start a zucchini business. What do you think? I think we've harvested more zucchini than anything else this summer.
We were so happy to see more cucumbers. There was a clog in our drip system and the cucumber plant didn't get watered for two whole days. You can tell from the dry, crunchy looking leaves.
I'm ready for this watermelon to be ready.
Look at how tall one of our heirloom tomato plants has grown.
And we're happy to see lots of tomatoes. They'll start turning a pretty golden/reddish color soon.
Our sweet potatoes are thriving!
Our thyme is definitely trying. We hope it grows and grows so Mommy will have a lot of it to store away for winter.
P.S. Daddy got home before Mommy did today. Daddy and Grandpa had a great weekend away...relaxing, golfing, and eating lots and lots of good food and dessert. I think he forgot my doggy bag. We'll forgive him this time since we were so excited to see him after almost three days.

  1. Wow! Look at all those veggies! You sure do have a green paw, Teddy! I'm glad your dad got home and had fun. But I bet he feels bad about forgetting to take you with him.

  4. A three-day trip deserves not just a doggy bag but a souvenir as well! The garden is magical but zucchini does get a little overwhelming sometimes. If mom has a dehydrator, zucchini chips are very tasty with dip.
