My first year really going at it. I did everything from seed and learned a lot.
Royal burgundy beans are the shit. Big yields, little maintenance, and taste great.
The "french horticulture beans" are pretty stupid. It might be too early but I've only counted a handful of young pods. Also they say they are bush beans on the packet but they really are pole beans, luckily my railing acted like a trellis.
Definitely should have made a trellis for the cucumbers, but we'll see how they deal without one.
Eggplants are hardy as hell. Granted they get the most sunlight but they grew like crazy. One of them got riddled with aphids so I trimmed off almost every leaf and it popped right back into form.
My trees are all doing well but I don't expect any fruits this year.
Also what am I doing wrong with my carrots? I had massive green tops but stubby little carrots. I think I only got one that looked good out of the 8 I pulled this year.
