Those are ripe yellow cherry tomatoes...and one little red one.
And, the first of Lonnie's "Better Boy" tomatoes. he picked them before they were totally ripe, figuring something might get them if he waited too long. They are nicely shaped...a lot better than last year's - they had lumps and lobes instead of being nice and smooth.
He has been having trouble with a blight or fungus on his tomato plant leaves.
He tried an epsom salt solution he read about online but mostly he is just removing the affected leaves...leaving his tomatoes dangling in the breeze!
My zucchini plant seems to think it's job is to develop beautiful leaves instead of zucchini. We have only got 4 squash from it so far. I should have replanted that 2nd plant that disappeared.
The butternut squash vine is a real space hog. It really wants to run - way too crowded in this bed. But look, a cute little butternut squash!
I hope this one can mature. I would plant these again somewhere else. They are good to eat but pretty expensive at the grocery.
Lonnie has picked a few small green onions too. A little disappointing because they are hot tasting.
