Looking good, Elaine. I removed the summer peppers from my earthbox and started a different one with fall peppers. so far, so good for them.

Thanks for inquiring, and yes, the tomatoes are looking good. I saved 4 of the best looking open pollinated/heirloom plants that I had started. They recovered from whatever it was they had (heavy spraying with hydrogen peroxide/water). So, those 4 plus the 4 hybrids I bought should give me at least a few tomatoes to try.

Zucchini plants are up, green beans are up and I planted cucumbers last week. that only leaves the broccoli and cabbage plants to get into an earthbox once they're big enough.

New herbs started last week as well. I found a source for some onion sets (or maybe you call them 'bulbs') so I'll get those early next month and have some green onions again. Then time to start the lettuce and radishes. It seems strange reading other forums and people are winding down their gardens and we're just getting started here.
