Well, "organic" doesn't really exist here...
Produce with "acceptable" -icide levels is exported. If they are high, produce is sold nationally. And if levels are disgustingly high, it is shipped to Guatemala.
At least, that's how the local joke runs...

The beans are producing heavily now. About a pound from each container picking every other day. Got to start canning and pickling them.

I just pulled the first of (6) heads of Bonnie Cabbage. It's solid and heavy, 4 lbs.
I'm going to cook it up later today or tomorrow. See that happen here:

Almost forgot to post a current pic of the Lemon Boy tomatoes.

Two new picks for the season.
The first ripe fruit of my beloved Tomatoberrys.
Some Sugar Snap Peas, there won't be many of these as they are producing poorly.

I'm letting a few of the Achocha fruits mature to try and get some seed to save. Maybe enough to share!

Effn birds!
I think there might be a BlueJay wearing a target!
And on a positive note, Big Beef Tomato going red.
And more after that one.

The pineapples are growing out nicely.
Here's one with pups growing at the base.

The first non-cherry tomatoes to the table are Big Beef, Super Sioux, and Lemon Boy.

How is the taste of Super Sioux? I read somewhere it tolerates the heat quite well...

I may have made a mistake, I don't think that one was a Super Sioux. That container had lost it's tag so I'm going to have to figure out what it is for sure.
In other tomato news, the scraggly left over plants I put behind the garage seem to be doing pretty well at this time.
A pic from each end of the row.

I picked two more of the Bonnie cabbages yesterday. Only one of those left and in a while I can start picking the Megaton and Red Acre cabbages that were started from seed. One of these will become coleslaw and the other will be ???.
One was just under 4 pounds and the other was just short of 4 1/2 pounds.
I picked the remainder of Waltham Butternut Squash, just about 11 pounds.
It's supposed to rain today and tomorrow so some of the processing may just show up on my FLOG.

I pulled one of the older chunkier ACHOCHA fruits to check for seeds. These look okay, and there are a few more large pods I'll let go for a while yet. Rocotos aren't the only thing with black seeds, although these are a little strange looking.

Lemon Boy tomatoes ripening now.

I picked a few of the older Achocha pods to check for seeds. It looks like they are viable as a couple have sprouted and started to grow inside the pod.
