    ^^^^ @TrueNorthTreasures !! Love the pickins! I went in for the DEEP dive into the other photos you have. My golly! Impressive.
    The first time I bought and roasted Delicata squash was at Christmas and I was sold on the flavour, plus the skin is easy and tender to eat.
    That Dragon's Egg Cucumber is new to me. Is the flavour the same as an English one or baby cukes?
    Great going on making Zucchini relish! I've made many jars of it in the past but no one here would appreciate it now so I don't bother.
    The deer!!! The sly cautious Cat!! lol. Great pics capturing the wildlife in your backyard.

    This is clearly the end of the harvest road for the green beans. Wonder why the foliage is so luscious still, yet no new flowers?
    The zucchini barrel still has smaller ones that can mature but I'll be making 2 things today from this batch. Sausage stuffed boats
    and Pizza inspired boast ( hint: pepperoni and Mozz are involved ).

    Happy harvesting everyone! We still only have undesirable green tomatoes on the lone plant that DH put in.

    Finally! We have 3 tomatoes. I still will have to set 2 of them on the window sill inside to get redder but better that than chance critters biting into them if I left them outside any longer.
    Pretty sure this is the last of the green beans. Another 20 1/2 ounces. Yum yum!

    I've enjoyed watching everything grow this winter. Thanks @crafter for the inspiration.

    I did not know tomato plants could produce twice. This is round two for these plants. We had cherry tomatoes all winter

    Wow. Those look fantastic. How fun that they are producing twice (I did not know that was possible either).

    I've almost used all the plant food that came with my AeroGarden starter kit. Does anyone have suggestions for replacing it. The brand name one is so expensive! Although the 1 liter bottle on Amazon seems like a better value, but still expensive.

    I've had an IDOO hydroponics system for almost 2 years. I have only grown leaf lettuces in it. When I ran out of the supplied plant food I bought SCHMIDT Liquid All Purpose Plant Food 4-4-6 (600ml) from Dollarama for $4.xx. Aerogarden Liquid Nutrients 4-3-6 (1 liter) on Amazon is $40. I have been eating lettuce since mid December. I think it grows just as well as the supplied plant food. I use about 1 tablespoon for 4 liters of water every 3-4 weeks.

    That is very helpful. Thank you! I'm going to look for it on my next Dollarama visit.

    I found the Schmidt Liquid Fertilizer at Dollarama today. The NPK numbers have changed from 4-4-6 to 6-2-4. I'm not sure why they would change it.
