Okay then, I'll use the same box I used last year. This is my first ANSFG box, with the carrot I just picked from it. YUMMY! Sweet and crisp! My poor garden is trying so hard to pick up my slack. I'm really starting to feel guilty. Embarassed

That is a big carrot! Love it! sunny

It's not really that big. I cropped it and put it in the other pic, but it was still big for me -- about 4" and I don't plant long varieties, so it's probably big for its breed. Razz

I wondered how carrots with such short tops could produce a carrot that big.

Can't believe that it is the 2nd of June already! The Curly Kale is doing beautiful this year - maybe it is all of the daily rain since early April - and it makes a worthy Avatar...

I guess I am just not sure what month it is!

Lettuces and a few spinach leaves:

Yum!

Garlic, leeks, bunching onions, onions and tomatoes in this box.

Nice, TD.

Photos taken June 30 or July 1.

Peppers - purple bell and big Poblamos!

My precious, compact Snow Fairy tomatoes.

"Jerry" rigged this trellis support out of a piece of trellis netting and string for the Dragon Tongue beans!

This is how we do it! NICE!!!! Cool

You also know Jerry? The man does get around. Wink

Here is my first radish from "inside the box." The box itself is still not ready for prime time, but maybe it will be, next week. Rolling Eyes

I LOVE LOVE LOVE radishes....they are so yummy, and it’s lovely! What varieties did you plant?

French Breakfast, Red Planet, White Icicle, and turnips in the middle square, but they didn't come up. Sad

Nice! I forgot I had carrots in there last year. My carrots failed in the Salad Bar. When the radishes are gone, I'll plant more carrots here. For some reason, the rollies and slugs don't find them in this bed.

countrynaturals 6/13/2019, 11:50 pm

Okay, here's the box the radish came from.

I planted 3 different varieties and alternated them in the corners and sides, with turnips in the middle, for a nice display, but they all look alike. Sad

**Scorpio Rising** 6/14/2019, 9:56 pm

I like it! sunny

Thanks, Scorpio. There's another radish waiting out there for Hubby's breakfast, too. I love you

Onions are In the Box, a square full of them. Makes for a good June avatar.

**Scorpio Rising** 6/27/2020, 5:55 pm

Not inside the box, but I have a lot in containers, too! Here are my thymes! Some are blooming...

Pretty. Delicious!
