Update on the Garden, Mini Harvest July 9th 2013

      Hey guys! Sorry for the lack of update on here. I'm going to be working harder on updating more. I had to deal with a little heat wave in my area that pretty much killed the majority of plants I had in pots growing in the garden. The main thing I forgot, SHADE! I'll talk about that in another blog or video. Anyways, I wanted to show you some of the crop I was able to save before the plants completely died :(.

Here's some photos:

My Super Sweet 100 Tomatoes.

Black Cherry Tomatoes

Heirloom Tomatoes

Purple Cherokee Tomatoes

Hungarian Yellow Wax Peppers

Follow me on Instagram (http://instagram.com/ourdesertgarden) for more daily pictures from the garden! Remember, always try to grow new things! Even different types of foods you already know! Be adventurous! Take a bite out of something grown yourself. Until next time, Keep it Green and Keep it Growing!

First (mini) Garden Update!

Hey Guys!! ☻

This is my first post, and I just wanted to share with you some pictures of my THRIVING DESERT GARDEN ♥ !!
Better Boy Tomatoes:
 I chose this breed of tomato to show you because its a juicy, red, beef master tomato that tastes amazing. This plant is only a couple of months old and should be ready for harvest around late summer, if I'm lucky it'll be earlier.

Black Cherry Tomatoes:
This breed caught my eye because of the fact that if you put them in the fridge for a while, it changes the taste of the tomato completely. Again this plant is still maturing, I will update once I get some delicious fruit. Maybe even make a video on it ☻

Bloomsdale Long Standing Spinach:
 I love spinach, but I live in the desert and found that most spinach breeds don't take to heat well. Except this one! It's been growing like no tomorrow and is about 35 days into the average 55-60 day growing cycle. I plan on growing this breed continually. 

Eight Ball Zucchini Squash:
 This is another heat resistant breed. I chose this breed because the crop is quite compact and comes in multiples. Yes, I didn't show any crop. And that's because I'll show you how to harvest these in a video. So be on the look out on my YouTube Channel! Subscribe even ☻♥!!

Lemon Basil:
 I love my basil, and I love lemons. So this was a done deal. This herb is extremely fragrant with that special hint of lemon citrus, and thrives well in the heat.

Sugar Baby Watermelon:
 This is another heat tolerant crop. I love watermelons, especially naturally sweet ones. These melons will get about 8-10 lbs. and are completely black except for one yellow spot. I cannot wait to show you guys the inside of this fruit!

Vivian Lettuce:
Heat Resistant is the key to any lettuce in the desert!! I love this breed not only for the taste, but just look at it. It's beautiful! I grew up with the notion, that you should eat with your eyes first. And wow! This takes the cake over the standard Romaine Lettuce.

That's it for the update guys! Thanks for stopping by!! Subscribe to my blog and check out my other channels! I update Instagram Daily!

Until Next Time,

Keep It Green and Keep It Growing!! ♥
