Sweet potato growth update

I have high hopes for the sweet potatoes. If my sweet corn squirrel research yields no easy solution, and if the crop of sweet potatoes looks good, this bed may be entirely covered with sweet potatoes next year.

roma tomato growth update

In previous photos I showed a few roma's, here are the only two currently growing.



I am rethinking where I will plant the tomatoes for next year. Probably put the garlic against the hedge and put the tomatoes further from the hedge.

Sweet corn update

So, as a buddy of mine warned, the squirrels would most likely get to the corn before I would. I came home on Friday and found a squirrel at it. The first two photos show the damage done.





I managed to pull three surviving corn just so I could investigate their growth. They were obviously premature, here they are pre and post peeled.









I ended up throwing these into the back yard to let the squirrels have them. I'm going to investigate what can be done to protect the corn from squirrel invasion, and if my research yields many different failed attempts, I may not attempt to grow corn again.
