World’s tiniest ripe currant tomato? 🤔

Brought our winter squash in to cure today. I could have left them on the plants a bit longer but the leaves were mostly gone, so risk/reward, I thought they should come inside.

They're Crown Prince squash - first time growing them here, and they've grown better than the butternut squashes, so I'd consider it a success. (The butternuts are fine, just small - their plants are still healthy though so we'll leave them out until the first frost warning).

Picked the first capsicum from the garden.
Chopped it up, and sauteed some with some mushrooms, tomato, and spring onions, then added it to some baked beans on toast for breakfast.

The aroma when I cut it open was Fucking Amazing... it's so easy to forget how good food is meant to be until you grow your own.

@pluralistic Thank you for helping solar power get to people. As you share, the fossil fuel and technology sectors are trying to add choke points to solar power systems. #solar, #solarpunk, #offgridsolar, #balconysolar, #growyourown, #solarpower, #solarpanels

And here is the first batch of apples!
Yes, they could have waited a little more, but I was impatient/ anxious that some unpredictable pest (worm) woud eat them before me.
They are delicious with nut butter.

Regarding to other harvest, we had the biggest zucchini of the season. You see, zucchinis hide so well in plain sight and we missed it for a week. Promptly, I gave this beautiful monstrosity to one of the lucky neighbors who love zucchinis! 💚

One of the heirloom tomatoes is huge, too. I can’t wait for them to turn red!

And the green beans! “Kentucky Wonder” produces so well in a tight space.

We got a very ripe bittermelon this evening! They turn orange right before the fruit explode like peeled banana. I got lucky that this small orange one was still intact. 🤗🧡

Other recent haul from #gardenPlot14. I only grow what grows well without much effort* in my plot.

*compost, water and lots of sun—that’s about it

Descriptions are in the AltTexts 😉

Tomatoes are coming in! 🍅✨

The neighboring gardener gave us some heirloom tomato seedlings, and the grape tomatoes were grown from the seeds of the supermarket ones we’ve been eating! They’re all growing wild this summer. Tomatoes love it hot n dry!

Look, I know computers are great and everything, but these lovely fuckers sink carbon, produce food and oxygen, stabilise the soil, help prevent flash floods, attract wildlife, self replicate, smell nice, and don't have an AI chatbot interface.
