The Official Gardening Thread

Anybody know what it means when the baby peaches leak out a clear sap like substances?
I also have a gang of mushrooms growing out of the soil "the base of tree "
 
Loganberry bush is starting to bud and the honeyberry bushes have like tripled in size!!! I prolly should had looked into pruning them...

I havnt touch the honeyberry since I planted them couple years back and the loganberry is like 4, 5 or maybe even 6 years old now and still going strong... All I do is cut back the canes and allow a few to grow as it would happily take over the fence...

Not sure but they didn't last long.

Yeah I dont think they do last long, I had similar thing a couple years ago... Woke up and had tons of mini shrooms, they were gone by the evening... It happened a few times that summer...

I did some Googling at the time and quite few places said it meant the soil was healthy...

Might be worth checking with your local Garden nursery though...
 
Ive had a couple cucumbers already, they seem alot smaller this year, like an inch or two shorter and alot less wider *pause*... Cant remember what variety I got but its a different one to last year...

Maybe they will get bigger but not too sure... The first cuke I composted, this second one is bigger so maybe I need to test it out... The pick makes it look bigger than it is...

Thinking of buying another cucumber plant to grow alongside it...

My garden isnt going too great!!! Ive had alot less time to spend in it this year, plus with the extreme heat its just messed the tomatoes and cukes up...

Think my cucumber might be toast too, though I still got hopes of harvesting some tomatoes and beets...

My fruit is going ok though, theyve kinda take care of themselves... had some honeyberries already and think the loganberries might be ready soon...

What are honey and Logan berries?
Click to expand...

Honeyberries are similar to blueberries but abit sweeter and 'bell' shaped... They are part of the honeysuckle family (which are poisonous dont eat those), though honeyberries are full of antitoxins and really tasty...

Loganberries are like a mix of blackberries and a raspberries, though they are pretty tart to eat raw, so I give them to mother to cook with... The plant was given to me from a friend about 5 or 6 years ago now though and it just continues to grow like mad with little to know maintenance lol

I just have to keep the canes down to a max 3 because it would happily take over the whole fruit cage and become unruly...

I planted maaaaad late this year, but here's my watermelon baby. I really should have moved her away from the little table, but she attached herself to it.

And I thought I killed my cucumber plant for the second year in row, but she's making a comeback!
