Notes from the Garden

Demonstration Garden Update 7/29

Claremont Demonstration Garden

Things continue to progress nicely in the garden. The smaller tomato varieties have started to produce continually, and we're still getting steady stream of 8-ball squash. 

The squash and chard have continued to droop in the summer heat, so Megan and I mulched the garden to prevent water evaporation out of the soil. 

Our first cantaloupe is has started to form and we're looking forward to eating it in a couple of weeks.

Small Melon Fruiting

The harvest weight came in at 6.3 pounds this week and included a large 8-ball squash, our first Costata Romanesco squash, a few cucumbers, chard, and a small handful of assorted tomatoes. This brings our season harvest total to 16.3 pounds.
