The Garden

The garden is doing great this year. 
 The 4 cabbages are huge and ready for the fair.
 The snow peas are growing wild.  I have tried to contain them with twine but they have outgrown the supports.
 E has already picked a mess of beans and cooked them for us.
 I can't wait for these to turn red so I can start having bacon and tomato sandwiches again.
 I have no idea what is wrong with this puny pepper plant.  It stays wilted half the time and is 1/4 the size of the others.
 I don't know how many squash I've picked (and given away).  But I noticed something has been eating the blooms.
 Then I found Toad.  I can't decide if he is eating them or after whatever else is.
I'm trying the cucumbers on a trellis this year.  It looks like they are off the a good start.

  4. The toad is looking for those insects that are eating your garden.

    Looks like you might have a cut worm. Need to squash him when you find him.
