Garden Notes And Photos! :)

 This is the time of the season when it's beneficial to walk through the veggie garden and see the plants at, or near, mature size! It gives one an opportunity to learn from mistakes and make better plans for the upcoming year! :)
Come along, and I'll show you some of the things I'm taking note of in this year's garden! :)

 I must decide if seeing the tomato plants busting out of the greenhouse, is worth being able to grow 8 plants, (4 on each side), or if limiting myself to a total of 6, (3 plants on each side), would be the better choice. :)

 This is the first year I've grown shelling beans and I can see that in the future, the fava beans will do better with support! :)

 I find only half of my walkways remain open now, so I'll need to plan wider walkways next year. :)

 Everything's producing on schedule, and again I will plant Fortex pole green beans that stay tender even if they get overlooked for a couple days and grow too large too fast! :)

 I'm happy with the summer and winter squash, and other than giving myself a larger walkway, I won't change a thing! :)

 Speaking of walkways, ironically, the area that I thought had too wide of walkways to begin with, ended up having no walkways at all! I already know how I can correct this problem next year! :)

 The pumpkin vines refuse to limit themselves to the garden space, and this pumpkin managed to grow outside the fence! :)

 I've been re-training other squash vines back into the garden to keep the produce safe inside, and some of the vines are utilizing the fence itself! One vine is getting some height on it! I'll wait to see if that's a good thing or not, once that vine produces! :)

 The corn is coming on, but right now it seems smaller than expected. It may be the new type of corn I'm growing for the first time, or it could be I grew the stalks too close together this year, or perhaps the cobs will still get bigger as they mature. ... Time will tell. :)

 One of our grape plants is too young to produce yet, by not too young to show it's beautiful Fall color! :)

 Our mature grapes are doing well and their clusters are coming along! :)

 I think the rows of corn look attractive behind the raspberry row! :)

Thanks for walking through the garden with me and being a part of my taking the garden notes and photos for growing a better garden next year! I always enjoy spending time in the garden, and I hope you enjoyed your time spent there, too! :)
