Pine Street Garden Status 7/28

The tomatoes are starting to ripen. We picked small tomato varieties this year after sacrificing some fist sized beauties to the squirrels last season. The birds love to perch on our wire cones so here's hoping that they're not anticipating biting into their first juicy tomato of the season - just like us. Re: our tomatoes, the weird thing is that we planted two heirloom tomato starters this year and 4 tomato plants are coming up. Perennial tomato plants? Thanks Greensgrow. I think.
Check out our progress below. The tomato plants we actually planted are: Mini Charm and Elberta Peach. Our cucumber plant is an Armenian Cucumber variety. It's spreading like crazy but has only yielded one wrinkly, long, twisted, cucumber that seemed to grow overnight. And lastly we have a happy rainbow chard. Hopefully more to come!
