VEGE PATCH. What's growing in yours?

sunflowers Asimina Triloba growing in its shade/kangaroo protection longan I thought I killed with seasol but has re sprouted young peach doing well. Rocks at the bottom are to stop chickens digging the mound all up. Thats one of those gold eating Chickens by the way layful: a redundant shower area used to try to propogate difficult plants and also grow seedlings that seem determined to die. There is a marcotted Hass advocado that I cut off before roots where developed properly. Seems to be coming around to the fluro light. last surviving Rhuem noble under fluro light. I managed to kill all my other seedlings. Too much water, too much sun, too little sun. I can see why they are a rare find in peoples gardens now. gunnera manicata. Its mean to be a weed in some parts but every thing here wants to eat it hence the wire. Hass advocado. Protection will come off when its established better after next winter.

Just a few more pics of my produce.





Here's a comp for you. See if you can find the capsicum. Sorry no nuggies to give away but plenty of tomatoes.

Just redoing a couple of beds
4rows
next generation of sweet corn... we'll see if they're hybrids or not

corn was here Last time

thinned my eshallots and replanted elsewhere in the next bed

pumpkins make it you can't mow there....

and they spread into places they shouldn't. ... like the asparagus

gunna be a bumper crop of chocky puddins

and lasly.... the new lookout.... a crows nest in our jacaranda tree

Do you grow Tomatoes in winter?

I think I might even give them a go this year after seeing all those.
I'm just gunna let mine ramble over the top of the mulch under the tree's I recon. And plant cauliflower in the rest of my empty bed.
Mrs S says you can use cauliflower as a substitute for anything... health wise thinking.
just gotta time the bugga's right to miss the butterflies at the crucial big head time...m nothin worse than grubby brassica's

Yep-too much!!!

Well I couldn't get cauliflower plants so I've put seed in here
funny hey.... I planted the seeds this morning and one hour later seen the first cacto blastis buttefly of the season lol

The corn is up already

and the shallots are taking and renewing fast

I'm finally getting some paw paws

getting a couple of male paw paws too

I'll finish with a few more crows nests and orchids that I've just put in up higher and on palms

He should have used seasol.... pity he swore so much ! erfect:

Only a few kg of tomatoes left in the patch now.

Processed one lot into plain passata and will start another batch tonight. Apple trees are giving a bit as well.

I don't usually grow for size. I'm happy with anything over 350 gm.
This was my largest this year.

Nice work HL :Y:

I think it was a big max or big mac. Its one of the american show varieties. They can get massive if you grow them properly.

Daughter and sunflower.

That'll be a great photo for your Daughter to look back on Gf. !
:flowers:
:trophy:

My corn is shooting up

and the shallots look happy

some local radium

cauliflower..... maybe..... washed into a low spot

cherry tomatoes... one in where the crows nest was.... some others under a mango tree on the edge of the deep mulch.

crows nest and orchid pushed into the cavity left over when a palm tree seat rotted out

a bigger crows nest.... destined to end up in under the bowen mango tree once it gets twice as big (perhaps in 10 years from now)

it is growing well.... feeds on leaves that drop in for tea !
