Onions are just beginning to "lay down". Almost overnight, they just "plop over" on their sides. When half or more of the Onions lay down, they are just about ready to harvest, with some steps for the Gardener inbetween. Onions are cool season, so they complete their growth early and when the heat comes they are ready to harvest. Soon, those Beds will be empty and ready for the next crop. Stay tuned.
Those Tomato Plants are really growing. Richard checks them daily and makes sure they are growing straight up inside their cages for support. Some are beginning to blossom and a few have fruit. Bear in mind that Tomatoes do not like wet conditions. It is very important to keep their leaves above the Soil, which spreads disease. The Straw Mulch keeps the mud from spattering up. Stay tuned.
