Life in Tee Harbor, Alaska

Garden Pictures

The garden is doing well, mostly...  The slugs ate most of my zucchini plants and today I see they attacked the rhubarb.  Chickens like slugs, right?!

Here is the main garden - peas, strawberries, potatoes, onions and beets.  I have reseeded the beets where some did not germinate.

These are a few more raised beds - pretty wild looking as I haven't been tending the garden as I should lately.  In the boxes are carrots, more carrots with radishes, cabbages and the far one was zucchini.  I saved the best three plants and repotted them and replaced them with more cabbage.  Those yellow flowers in between the boxes are my not so favorite buttercups - they take over everything!  To the left is rhubarb and raspberries.  There are so many new raspberries coming up, next year we should have lots of berries!!  May have to consider moving the rhubarb...

Next is the greenhouse.  The tomatoes look good so far.  A few small fruits are starting to form.  The cucumbers aren't doing so well, I think they have some sort of fungus or something - they are kinda just withering up and dying.  So I have about 3 small fruits on them - not quite enough to make a jar of pickles!  I was thinking of moving them to a better spot to see if that helped and replacing them with something else - I have some jalepeno plants that I could put there.  I also have more tomatos plants that need to be planted, just have to find a place.
