Nelson Family Farms: An Update

We are well into the gardening season, and I still am not sure how I feel about my little project. I have loved with all my heart on my garden, and had have some success, yet my extremely high expectations still hold me back from feeling happy with it.

The lettuce and onions have done great. We have lettuce coming out of our ears.

Our vine plants are large. We have 2 nice canteloupes, and a ton of small watermelon.Whether they will be any good to eat, I'll let you know later. My cucumber and squash are flowering, but I see no fruit yet. Sigh!

But whats really frustrating me is my midget corn. I dont know whats wrong with them. They are already flowering, but are only about 3 feet high. Our neighbors' corn stalks are in the same flowering stage, but are huge....like 6 feet high. This really bothers me. Oh, and also I have one tomato plant that flowers and flowers and flowers but has no tomatoes. I swear its teasing me. Luckily, its friend the grape tomato plant, has plenty to share. All you aggies out there, if you know anything about midget corn and tomatoes that need in-vitro, let me know. Its killing me!
