My cucumber plant is huge. No cukes. My bush bean plants are use. No beans. I have 4 tomato plants, one has tomatoes. The same size they were three weeks ago.

Basically I am growing compost. I guess the 4x4’s are worthless.

What kind of soil did you use?

Smack their vines gently, like tomatoes, green peppers, it sends some kind of veggie message, I don’t understand it, but I’ll try it. Tomorrow, I’m gently smacking my tomatoe plants with a feathered thingy, and trip some of the green stuff then taking off the top.

Really? Our cukes and tomato plants are coming close to replacement time. We’ve harvested 2 bushels of each, and the Mrs is getting tired of canning. We only planted 4 bean plants this year, but harvested enough for several side dishes.
