Harvest Monday 24/09/2012
This past week we had a couple of days of frost that really
put an end to the growing season. Nonetheless, the harvest keeps rolling in. I am linking up with harvest Monday over at Daphne's Dandelions
I picked as many
tomatoes as I could and have been continuing to cover them when the frost warning
comes out. This is what I have brought in so far.
I have only been about to weigh the three small boxes and
the total has come to. 20.169kg I will weigh the rest later.
I went and picked as many spaghetti squash as I could. This
is what I was able to save 25.7kg None of them are ripe, but I am hoping that
they will still survive. There are about another 10+ out in the garden, but
either the frost got them or they are too immature.
they might not be mature but they all weighed around
2.5kg...crazy!
I also picked the last of the broad beans and got 2.250kg
The frost helped to uncover the hiding zucchini. We found
10.789kg
We also dug up another 2 rows of potatoes and got of norland
and of Yukon gold, but I haven’t weighed them yet

It looks like you got some nice harvests this week. It is so sad that your season is almost done.
ReplyDeleteMrs. P lots of tomatoes. Makes my 35 pounds look small. I have quit covering. If what is left out there freezes so be it.
ReplyDeleteWow. And yum :)
ReplyDeleteNice harvest Mrs.Pickles!
ReplyDeleteditto "wow"!! I learned this year, that if you fertilize with chicken poop, you'd better plant stuff a lot further apart, A LOT! If you don't, nothing really grows fruit. It's all working too hard to get sun.
ReplyDeleteAnd I didn't use much of this fertilizer. Boy, does it work!
I can't get over your garden and how much yumminess it produces! Wow!
ReplyDeleteAn amazing harvest! Our garden did extremely well this year too, especially the tomatoes. We'll be getting all the carrots out this week to put in peatmoss and store in the coldroom. Are yours out yet?
