The bitter cold that the spiders forecast all summer long is here and my garden is pretty much gone. With freezing temps well into the single and double digits, all the veggies are showing the signs of cold weather stress.
The remaining tomatoes have died and the fruit on the vines froze. The broccoli and cauliflower leaves are showing signs of freeze burn. The sugar snaps are still green and the lettuce and spinach seem to be enjoying the cold.
It is sad to see the end of the growing season and yet there are sugar snap peas starting to sprout in the grow boxes I recently replanted. Apparently, there is always a saving grace.
I had a great time this year with my garden and it successfully produced about 325 pounds of vegetables. I am proud of the garden's success.
All I can say is "Wait until next year, we will be onward and up the ante!"
