It's good to see you've gotten your first tomato. The first one of the season is always special. Your corn looks great, I wish I had the room to try growing some.
Ed - You should give growing corn a try. You can plant corn in raised beds and have pretty good luck with it. As far as the tomato, I am not sure what to do with it since it is so small.
Granny - I know and I am sorry, but now you know how I feel when I look at your rasberry and strawberry pictures. My wife just asked me if I could grow some strawberries to make strawberry jelly. I said I don't know, but maybe if you pay off Granny she will send you some.
Ed - I've got ~15 stalks of corn growing in a 31-gal rubbermaid tub and may get to pick the first of it today.
Kris - strawberries are easy...I have 7 hanging baskets full and we were swimming in berries for a while. My boys just loving grabbing a few every time they walk by. Made some low-sugar strawberry banana freezer jam and it's SOOOO good. Tastes just like fresh berries!

ReplyDeleteEnough with the corn pictures, Kris. My stomach is growling! There's nothing I like better than fresh, sweet corn on the cob.
