Update on the garden.

Its been super wet here for over a month but the sun finally came back. The garden made it through!

Secondary planting and replanting is going well. New spinach, 3 rows, (all 5 rows bunched on me before I learned of the phenomenon) two more rows of great lakes lettuce, another row of carrots, radish, broccolli, kale, secondary cucumber... Mint, oregano, basil and dill to compliment whats there and fill out some space. A row of sweet bulb onions, red and yellow to top it off. I've pruned the tomatoes up to allow for the herbs and such to grow around them

We have broccolli!!

The corn in the back I have been peeing around has taken off!!

The strawberry pot, raspberries and blackberry are coming up nicely.

Apple seems happy...

I started feeding my open unwanted pH perfect nutrients to one of the pumpkin pots at about 75% strength. The other pot gets miracle grow. This should be interesting... You can definitely see a week and a half in whos getting what lol.

Advanced nutrients is the experimental part lol. I have personally grown 3 decent jack o lanterns over the years... I want monsters this year! Theres a dozen or so in there at the moment...

Everything else is pretty much a first for us. In the structured and organised gardening sense...

Thanks mate yes the small patch of them is just enough with the snow peas as well I’m going to use some of the area to the right of the chook yard to do bigger pea , corn n potatoes area just need a few more hrs in the day . I’m supposed to be at work but I got there and no machine for me to use so I still get payed all day to stay home in-front of Fire With that big black chicken staring dog Miller . Making bank was never so hard .... Od

Some of you that saw last week's drone video will know what I'm talking about when I say crazy growth rates from the hot weather this year... The heat just about did in my pea plants for the season but the peppers and tomatoes are ripening and green beans and corn are on their way.. along with pumpkins cantaloupe acorn squash and some cucumbers which are getting taken over by what I thought was a bush variety pumpkin plant that grows fist-sized decorative pumpkins.... So much for the bush part

Advendtishious roots is what happening here .
Thanks @One drop , I've never heard / seen of something so prolific. Is this something tomatoes are well known for, and do do tomatoes have any beneficial rooting effects on other plant like willow dies when its branches are made into a tea rooting hormone ( I forget what tye name of the rooting hormone that's present in willow )?

Yes tomatoes will push out this type of roots , I have a way that uses this type of rooting if you make a trench and lie the tomatoes down with roots in trench back fill till you get to the growing tip gently turn the tip up so it leaves are above the ground water in and stand back let it produce some great fruit . I’ve one cannabis plant do this back in the late 90’s so I did this extra rooting as well I’m not bullshitting you I got 15 lb of that plant my wife can vouch for me have never had it happen again .
