Your plants are huge. What type of cuke do you have? I just caged mine and saw some mid sized lemon cukes. They came out of nowhere

Cute family u have there.

Let us know how they taste. I am especially interested in boar and CP

Dude those 5 gally swc's are workin out great! Gonna try a a couple I built for summer/fall tomatoes. Everything looks freakin great!

Oh, I so want to eat those Cherokee Purple...mine are all still green!

Looks like you needed every extra inch of height those Target cages and threaded rod bought for you, and to think it's only late June. Still 4 solid months of growing to go!

Brian,

Where did you buy those sturdy black tomato cages? (Target?)

Thanks!
Gary

Thanks guys, I just realized the picture I posted of my wifey(she'll kill me when she sees it) and baby girl is an action shot. If you look closely you can see that Kara had just reached and grabbed a leaf off of a plant and my wife was reacting to quickly grab it out of her hands before she tries to investigate it with her mouth.

They are Diva(tried and trued) and Eureka Hybrid(first time)!

Glchen
You got it, they are the ones from Target

Let me know how divas are. Was going to grow them this year but forgot to add to my order.

TAMMY, I can tell you from past experience that they are productive, crispy, flavorfull, burpless/seedless and, well...my favorite!
No need to peel these guys

Everything looks awesome, especially the 5 gallons. My 5 gallons are growing nice as well. I see you are tying some stray branches. Hearing problems regarding 5 gallon being too small, I have been searching for something in 10 or 20 gallon. Unforunately, the 10 gallon cost $19 each. So that is out.

The kids do love the garden, don't they ?

I went to 3 walmarts on Friday alone to make some earthtainers with no luck. Are those 1/4 inch X 18" X 54 " cages ?

Keep the pictures coming.

Those are looking great! Here in zone 7 MD, I am thrilled to see the first tomato fruits breaking color. It won't be long now to picking time.

This has been a wonderful growing season here. The steady rain has been great for the garden (and weeds, but I am staying ahead of them). The pole beans and cukes are just leaping up the remesh trellis. Even the corn is growing well (had 2 trees that shaded the garden removed last Fall) and they get 2 hours more sun per day. The lettuces and radishes are lush and full.

This might be one of the best garden years ever for me.

Brian:

Your crop looks fantastic!!!!!! Wow and in Home Depot containers:) I am a little partial as I work there:):) I will now have to get a 5 gallon container for the fall. Can you tell me what you put in it to make it swc? Your wife and child are awesome too:)

Dusty

Looking good, Brian. Super healthy greenery.

Did I see a white-booted, black garden stalker in the third pix??

Can't miss the Boar. Looks like a "biggun"!!

Yes, we'll have to exchange some seeds this year. I already have Black & Red Boar seeds saved and Berkeley Tie-Dye is full sized (need some color). And, if Kara gets to grow her own plant, I may have the perfect one her. Determinate, very early, golden yellow, balanced taste, lots of fruit, perfect for a 5 gallon bucket.

Great pixs.

Bucket Farm update coming soon.

Click link, I have an explanation about 9 or 10 posts down

Ted
Yup, thats one of my two cats I've been trying to coax into playing in the busy street more often :)

My Pink Berkeley Tie Dye and Beauty King seem to be doing well too. The Beauty King has only set 7 fruits so far, but they are going to be huge
