October watermelons harvest.
4 small, homegrown watermelons in a medium laundry basket, for us to eat.
2 tiny watermelons, for the squirrels to eat.

When you forget to check on your dill cucumber plants for 4 days. They just made more baby dills.

Basil & parsley seeds sowed recently have germinated really well. I have tons of seedlings now. I'll split & transplant when they're a bit bigger/stronger.

I cut down 12 spent cucumber plants & chucked them into compost mulch pile. The garlic & snowpeas planted in the same pots are doing well. I'm sowing dragon tongue beans this weekend.

Backyard morning food harvest.
Picked these foods & need to wash & store them in fridge before heading off to the hospital again.

I have 3 jalapeño plants. All are producing a lot of peppers! This is one of them, with a cluster of jalapeño peppers, ripening 😁👩‍🌾💚
I love eating pickled jalapeños & am planning to pickle up most of our harvest.

My top pruned Thai chili pepper plant is now bushier than the others not top pruned & it has almost same amount of flowers. Currently there are 19 peppers developing on it. My other Thai chili peppers plants are also loaded with flowers & each one has over 20 peppers on them. I'll do a harvest weigh in comparison, when they're all picked 🙂✌️💚

Beet & rutabaga seeds have been sowed. I'm sowing next bunch of seeds every 1.5 weeks until end of September 👩‍🌾💚
Sowing my Winter turnips & daikon, next week.
The beet seeds are from Borden Mercantile. The rutabaga seeds, that look like poppy seeds, are from my friend's garden - she is unsure what variety it is.

Unexpected garden joy 😊

Baby corn - sweet yellow corn - local dwarf variety. I didn't expect to get any ears at all so these were nice surprises.

My first of two artichoke propagations. This one is now 1.5' tall & is very lush & healthy 💚👩‍🌾
My other one is only 3 inches tall so far but should grow bigger over next few weeks.

Bagged watermelons for protection.
These are 3 of 15 of watermelons that are currently growing on vines.
It's my 2nd year attempting to grow watermelons on Southern Vancouver Island. I'm getting a lot more fruits than last year 🍉👩‍🌾👍
My cantaloupe seeds failed this year.

Sowed watercress in 2 pots & 1 repurposed colander(lined with paper towel). I picked up 4 free colanders, on the weekend. They're all in a repurposed cafeteria bin, with water.

I did more homemade soil mixing, adding vermiculite into it.
Rooted my hibiscus cuttings into a pot.
Petted my wee basil babies.
I'm a proud, diverse plants parent 💚

I cut off 2 side shoots that had their own root system entangled with larger lavender root ball. Transplanted them into their own pots. Added some lavender cutting propagations into the pots too.
I also dug out a new artichoke side shoot & transplanted into its own pot.

A still shot of my gorgeous beetroot seeds 😍
I love seed photos. I love seeds. I love photography. Great, when both lifelong passions are combined.

My amazing #beetroot #seeds.
Tapped & saved from excellent mother plants. Watch/listen to video about the mother plants that I harvested these strong seeds from ✌️💚👩‍🌾

Winter carrots seeds were sowed. This is two of 8 pots that I sowed with more mini rainbow carrots & some finger carrots. I should be able to harvest these carrots in November/December. I will have round & finger carrots sowed outdoors in pots in October & November, moved indoors over Winter & those should be ready for harvest in January/February 🥕
