I have Basil coming out my ears and the Blueberries I have been picking for well over a month with several varieties which extend the season quite late.

Paul your garden looks great. I'm suprised the animals leave it alone. Even witha fence they get into mine. Mine's just about done. My garden only gets good sun may-august, once it starts to get lower during the days its only in partial sun because of the neighbors trees.

We've had a ton of yellow squash and cucumbers, and a ton of blackberries which we make jelly out of.

Something is eating the tops off my carrots, my potatoes are pretty much done ans I should dig them. I tried onions this year but they did not do well where I planted them. Somehow in all that rain the weeds took over, I kept up with it for a while but between working on the house and fishing they got out of control. Kind of depressing when I think of all the work that goes into starting it in the spring.

I've got 1 pumpkin on the vine, we'll see how it does and if the animals leave it alone.

and it looks good for pears and peaches which i can't understand as other than pruning I totally neglected them this year. Again no apples on the 4 trees I have left. They are the hardest to grow and require a constant spray regiment to get any fruit to harvest and I just didn't feel like going thru all the hassle involved so I expected the results. The other fruits got the same treatment but faired well.

I always had fungus issues with peaches, and I also had little success with apples, I just go to the store now
