Guest guest Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 This week i just had to say i'm now buried in carrots, as well as beans when i was harvesting more beans this morning, i pulled aside one of the vines and uncovered a row of large hidden carrots. we've been harvesting like one or two a week since late spring, but had mostly given up on em. these were under a pile of purple beans, and i had just missed em all summer i guess. just harvested over two dozen of the suckers, now need to figure out what to do with em (i kinda got all giddy and excited when i saw them and went harvest mad) and of course beans and beans and beans and did i mention beans? a few peas..maybe a dozen pods a day. new plants are just sorta sitting there. don't think they like the heat. collards are still insane. flowering, but i'm able to harvest the flower buds quick and they are tasty the dinosaur kale is fighting a losing battle with the largest of the collards... herbs mostly went " its hot! " and went to seed good turn out of basil still cucumbers and zukes doing fine, they love the beans. blackberries mostly finished. hoping to harvest most of the collards and greens, so i can get the fall greens in, tho, its bloody hot fer that right now anyways. cheers fraggle With the first link, the chain is forged.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Can you freeze the carrots if you dont plan on eating them in the next couple of weeks? as long as you havent cut their tops off, you could always stick them back in to keep until you want them? send some of that nice weather over here would you?
