Hi all,
I hope everybodies gardens are coming along as well as mine, to date I have canned 72 quarts of tomatoes, elleven pints of pickles, elleven pints of tomatoe paste, 15 qt bags of corn, 10 qt bags of sweet peppers, and 8 qt bags of stringbeans, oh and 15 bags of basile. But I just don't know what to do about my potatoe plants, the top of the plants are starting to turn brown, but when I dug up two plants most of the potatoes were still small, a few were the size of my palm but not many. Should I dig them all out now since the tops are turning brown, or should I let them stay in the ground for a while yet? Also I planted Sugarbaby watermellons in the middle of June from starter plants, and so far they look real good, but the vine connected to the mellons have not started to turn brown yet, does anybody know about how long it takes for Sugarbaby watermellons to come to rippen?
Thanks,
Paul
