Garden Bed

This is the first time I am growing broccoli and I wasn't sure when to harvest it. I learned that the heads start separating/flowering when they get too much sun or I don't harvest them soon enough. I think I planted them too late.


The cauliflower is not growing as fast as the broccoli.

I started a new garden bed. I am going to try and grow watermelon and cantaloupe vertically.



The tomato plants are growing good. I am trying a different staking technique. Instead of staking each plant I put up two poles on the side and wrapped some clothes line around to support the plants from falling forward or back. I have some chicken wire boxes on top of the yellow squash and zucchini in case the squirrel decides to attack again. So far, the squirrel repellent has been working.
