Some of my recent harvest. I grow in small raised beds so I only have a few plants of each thing.

I have three cucumber plants planted in a length of gutter and hanging down. The cukes are deformed looking. I don't know why. I also have one humorless plant planted the same way. It does not seem to have grown an inch since I planted it over a month ago. Guess I will try a different approach next season. That seems to be my modus operandi.

Something else I seem to have no luck with no matter what I try is potatoes. Those in the pic are half of my entire harvest. :(

Not doing well with my corn this year either. I have a few stalks looking ok in one tire. They should tassel soon. The other tire is a bust. Oh well, we will enjoy a few ears and be thankful for them.
