We suffered a great loss last week as one of the cucumber plants died due to a wilt infection which got into the plant after it was moved.
We still have one cucumber plant and the two pots of Sonesta and Safari beans in the bean/cucumber Quadgrow. The Tomatoes are doing well with fruit forming on Rosada, Scarlatto and Sweet Million. |
