white corn

the white corn plants were not so impressive as the blue corn plants.. and in turn, the cobs are way smaller. i do have more white cobs than blue, though. i'm going to save a few cobs off of each plant to replant next year. i think i'm going to not waste my time on tomatoes next year.. i just didn't get a good crop and i'm a little disappointed. instead i'm going to either container the cucumbers or build them a shallow bed .. and in the large beds just corn it up. i need to invest in moving my herb garden, too.. but not yet. anyway, corn!



this is my test cob. i kept opening it to check on the growth.. apparently that was bad advice from the internets.


because this happened.


its okay though. because i chopped off the shriveled tip, and ate it anyway. just a little bit of salt was all it needed.. sooooooooooooo sweet!



also, my giant cucumber vines.

That corn looks delicious! So amazing when you see something like that actually grow out of nothing but a seed! Your cucumbers are amazing too!!! I know you are having such fun!!!
