What Did You Do In The Garden Today - 4

(1/16) > >>

bestofour:
I gathered some cukes, squash, tomatoes, okra and green beans.  I think the cukes are about over and I think the squash may be giving it up too.  It's not due to bugs, which is unusual, so I guess it's just time.  I've always wondered if the plants eventually stop producing on their own.

Tina:
They do stop on their own. In California, if a tomato lives over winter it will begin to produce again as the weather warms in spring.

bestofour:
I'm also waiting to see what's going to happen to these pansys I planted last October that have lived through the summer.  Will they just keep on or will they eventually give up the ghost?

Tina:
They will probably keep going. Many of our annuals aren't in their natural habitat.

duh:
I've topped one of my tomato plants so I can overwinter it indoors.

Today I cut about 1/3 of the front lawn, pruned the out of control rosemary bush and cut a fox grape vine down at the root.  i hope that takes care of it.
