Gardening December 30th of 2013

Some of my tomatoes. This picture is actually on it's side. 

My cherry tomato plant with so much growing.  

Broccoli plants get huge with a thick stem. The flower head starts out so small. These do really well in the winter here in Arizona. When it gets too hot the flowering heads turn into a bunch of yellow flowers. You can't eat the broccoli then. Also it attracts bees like crazy. 


Radishes. See the varying sizes. All planted at the same time. Their growth depends on the fact that... a) some were too close together b) How much sun c) The amount of water. These were all grown in different beds.

I have two pots with radishes. The one that is visible did pretty good. For now I will leave them in the pot. They will survive. In the near future I will transplant the small ones in my garden.

Radishes are so easy to grow. Hardly any effort. I have been exploring ways on how to eat them. Last time I made a roast I added radishes along with potatoes and carrots.

Speaking of carrots and potatoes, I have carrots growing. I love to eat carrots. I also love potatoes. I have several yellow potatoes that have sprouted pretty good and soon I plant on planting them.

I am limited at the time at what I can or can't do. Since it's only been two and a half weeks since I had surgery. Technically I shouldn't even be gardening. Yet this morning I woke up and had a huge desire to check on my garden. I didn't do much, just picked some radishes.
