Hey all,

Well here are a few updated pictures. The tomatoes are coming off by the bucketfull now. The pumpkin plants have taken over, and I've got two monsters hiding in the patch. Not too shabby of a cucumber either, eh?

I seem to recall a query about your pumpkins taking over the world. Looks like they may have found a part of the world they like. That's still a great looking vegie patch. Well done. Watch out for those monsters though. They're often just a clever ruse to disguise other monsters you never knew existed....

What beautiful pumpkins! Hopefully all those pumpkins leaves are helping keep your weed population low! You're garden looks fabulous and healthy.

Hey nice garden. How much do you think the pumpkin weighs?

One thing I can never understand about pumpkins. I see pictures of other peoples pumpkin vines as a nice dark green. Mine are always a pale light green and the older ones quickly turn yellow. This despite my efforts to really 'beef' up the soil for them. I have no problem getting BIG pumpkins but it is odd.

Thank you so much for the compliments...last year was a disaster, so it's nice that this year is going so well.

Regarding the pumpkins, I have no clue how much they weigh, but they keep on growing and growing, it's just crazy...TWO pumpkins that big, wow. I'll post some more pictures of them soon. Thanks again. [Smile]

I've never seen that many tomatoes on a plant before. I see why you said they went crazy. Have a great harvest.
