Let's see those '09 gardens

My year of production is about over. Everything that hasn't died off is slowing down. As the weather is still good I think either the soil is depleted or the daylight hours are affecting the plants. No matter. It was a good year except the gopher attack on the potatoes and the late tomatoes.

Very small garden for us this year; just tomatoes and peppers. Tiller was down all spring and I set plants late. That ended up okay, as it was a wet. cold spring, and lots of folks early stuff did not do well. Our stuff is about done now.

One surprise; I had a volunteer tobacco plant in a flower garden. Some seedlings I started way too late last year did not make it, and I dumped everything in the flower bed. Had not noticed anything until we returned home from our Yellowstone trip over Labor Day weekend; there it was, getting ready to bloom!
