July 16, 2025 garden harvest. There are a pile of beetroot with the leaves attached, 2 cucumbers, 1 bulbous shaped sauce tomato, and 1 green zucchini on a dutch clover lawn.

Garden update: cucumbers. #Gardening #Zone5 #Cucumbers

I quickly picked the 'couple of things' that needed picked before I turned the water on this afternoon.

A large handful of green beans, 4 crook-neck yellow squash, 1 green zucchini, 2 cucumbers, and 10 orange and red tomatoes. The tomatoes on the left are big cherry tomatoes, the middle 3 are orange Flamme, and the 3 on the right are saved seeds from Costco Campari tomatoes.

It begins! July and August are our biggest months in the #garden, nonstop #harvesting, pickling, and #preserving! Yesterday I picked and froze the last of the #blueberries and Mike dug 1 1/2 bushels of Kennebecs and Yukons. He also picked some #cucumbers. Today, I made 5 quarts of #pickles, a large bowl of cucumber salad, and I sorted/stored the #potatoes. It is challenging to do all this while working, doing weekly chores, and renovating Dad's place, but I am grateful our land provides. 🫐🥒🥔

I got a feeling that it’s going to be a hot day, so I decided to make a simple salad of arugula, spinach, grape tomatoes, cucumber slices, crumbled goat cheese, and extra virgin olive oil drizzled over the salad and seasoned with salt and pepper. I also added a bowl of vanilla yogurt with granola on top and a cup of almond coffee.
I honestly think that it could use more grape tomatoes to add a citrus flavour into my salad and less goat cheese to lessen the sourness. But overall, I think my salad was pretty good and it kept me cool, and my yogurt gave a bit of sweetness to my breakfast.

The less aesthetic, but just as productive view: beans / beans / tomatoes (including the retaining wall pot crew) and some cucumbers plus extra borage/ tomatoes, beans AND cucumbers.

Cucumbers are beginning to really produce, so I'll be running frequent batches of pickles through the canner over the next month or so. #pickles #cucumbers #gardening #urbangarden #growyourown

It was a really hot morning when I woke up, so I had a plate full of sliced cucumbers and sweet pointed peppers with grape tomatoes, a bowl of yogurt topped with some granola, and a croissant with almond coffee on the side for my breakfast

Even though I had a pretty hot morning, I had the cravings for some buckwheat pancakes topped with a slice of butter, blueberries, and raspberry syrup. I also had a side of sliced cucumbers and whole grape tomatoes, and I had a cup of both almond milk and almond coffee to go with my breakfast

Watermelon, cucumber, tomatillo, and Amish paste tomato update.

There are lots of the sugar baby watermelon that had successful pollination. The first cucumber is growing and the tomatillo have rapidly expanding husks. The Amish paste tomato has set more fruit and they look to be the correct shape unlike the early ones that set.

A photo showing the size of a watermelon on the vine. A small paint brush that is used for pollinating and a couple of finger tips are nearby. The watermelon is light green colored with dark stripes and is about 50mm in size.

A single cucumber that looks prickly. It is growing from a plant that's seed was saved from a Muncher cucumber but it could be a hybrid between a Marketer cucumber.

A photo showing a tomatillo plant with some pollinated fruit. They are paper balloon looking light green with stripes husks that grow fast to full size then the fruit inside slowly fills it up. There are some large yellow flowers on the plant shown too.

A photo showing two Amish paste tomatoes growing on the vine. They are elongated with a somewhat blunt tip. They are in the shade.

Pollination in progress! Waiting for my summer bounty!

For my breakfast, I had a bowl of oatmeal topped with brown sugar, seasoned and sliced cucumbers and grape tomatoes, a chocolate muffin, and a cup of almond coffee. My breakfast as a whole was sweet from the chocolate muffin and the bowl of oatmeal and refreshing from the vegetables. #breakfast #food #oatmeal #muffin #cucumbers #tomato #coffee #summer

I forgot to post these photos of my breakfast, so I decided to share both photos of them because they’re very similar. I found both breakfast really refreshing from the vegetable slices and the oatmeal with brown sugar adds a little bit of warm sweetness.

First photo: a plate of sliced peppers and cucumbers and cherry tomatoes seasoned with salt and pepper, a small bowl of oatmeal with brown sugar mixed in, and a cup of almond coffee.

Second photo: a plate of sliced cucumbers and cherry tomatoes seasoned with salt and pepper, a large bowl of oatmeal topped with brown sugar, and a cup of almond coffee. #breakfast #food #oatmeal #coffee #vegetables #cherrytomato #cucumbers #bellpeppers

The cucumber crop is looking good. Not sure when to pick, but that’s nothing new.

#Gardening #Cucumbers

Cucumber vines with two good sized deep green cucumbers, maybe 4 inches long, resting on a smooth rock. The grocery store planter has an integrated support (black plastic).

Peas, no peas.

The cucumber bed with more of not-cucumbers in it. Harvested some beets this morning, pulled the pea vines that were done enough, and removed the plastic mesh. There are 4 cucumber plants from saved seeds, and 2 small cantaloupe type melons from saved seeds in the bed besides the beets, marigolds, petunias, mystery plants I haven't pulled...

What is the deal with cucumbers? They come up a lot in FDA recalls.
