July 7, 2009 Pole Beans Are Here

The pole beans are starting to produce some beans that are ready to pick. Right now it's only the first five or six plants that are producing but the rest of the row is not far behind. It's my understanding that you have to keep picking them otherwise they shut down - the more often you pick the better the harvest. I think I'll give it until Thursday before I start to pick just so I can figure out what to cook with them.

Also all three melons have fruiting flowers on them now. I've been a little worried about the cantaloupe because there have been flowers for a few weeks now, but no females. Today there's a big fuzzy one growing so I can expect at least one!
