baby tomato growing

Finally my little babies are big enough to take a picture of. The box fan is doing a great job of wind pollination too.

I cleaned out my other aerogarden unit and have planted lettuce mix seeds. Even though our outdoor garden is growing, I figured that having fresh lettuce for summer salads available right from my kitchen was worthwhile. And since lettuce is not very summer-heat tolerant, they will love being in a more controlled environment in the house. And no bugs dining on them too!

Our outdoor garden is now planted with the remaining four tomato plants that were germinated along with my current aero-tomato plants but of course they are no where near ready to flower or produce fruit yet. They are about half the size too.
We've got corn, beans, peas, and peppers planted too. Not to mention the Atlantic Giant pumpkin seeds for our local "friendly" competition.

I have just added shade sails to my inventory of store products. These are very popular this year not only for looks but they block out up to 90% of UV rays from the sun and temperatures underneath can be up to thirty degrees cooler too. Check em out!
