The Modern Victory Garden

A beautiful weekend and i am very happy with the garden. My potatoes are going crazy and I've already buried the Yukon Gold plants twice. The reds are doing well and a very nice dark green. I have some tenderette bush beans doing well.

My carrots are doing okay but my onions seem to be struggling. They grew fine at first then a few just yellowed and died the rest just don't seem to be doing much hmmm.

My zuchini, pumpkins and acorns seem to be doing great and transplanted great. I bought a couple tomatoe plants and they look good, Overall very pleased and it's a good feeling to see them growing everyday. Looking at a farmers market tomorrow for some sweet peppers and that should complete the garden. Next year I will probably do a lot of things differently but I'm happy with this year! Hope you all are enjoying your gardens!

Well done Larry!   On the onions, they are very shallow rooted and can dry out really easily.  You might try irrigating them very well and see if they perk back up for you.

The onions did perk up. I will keep them watered well. Although lately that hasn't been a problem. The gardens all in! woohoo
