This is a journal of my vegetable gardens. Skippy was my first dog and he thought the garden was his, even though I did all the work. Now Suzie and Charley follow in his footsteps. We're located near Boston (USDA zone 6A). I have a community plot, a backyard vegetable garden, fruit trees, berry bushes, chickens, and bees. I use sustainable organic methods and do my best to grow all of my family's vegetables myself.
You have magic fingers! What a wonderful and enviable harvest!! We dug our Charlotte potatoes and they are good! Thank Heaven. Lots of Rhubard, some peas but everything else is suffering from the Jet Stream blues. Marian (LondonUK)
My potato vines are huge, but no blossoms. I hope this doesn't mean no potatoes cause I've given them a lot of the space in my garden. I was gone for 3 wks earlier last month, drought is still ongoing, but watering a lot. Will there be potatoes? I also kept covering the sprouts with more soil for weeks after they first came up. The seed potatoes are now about 18 inches deep.

I have such garden envy; things are about a month behind normal in my garden!
Is that Costata Romanesco I spy? If not, are they similar? CRs are my fave.
