The garden is rocking along producing tons of tomatos, beans and squash. The Basil is booming, squeezing out the Japanese Eggplant and some of the peppers. We're buying lots of fresh motz to compliment the tomatoes and basil. Roasted squash is also popular on the menu now.
I don't know about the corn. Some of the ears look ok but over all it looks pretty spindly and thin. Pumpkins are coming along nicely with 3-4 already ripe.
I don't think we added enough fertilizer to the soil at planting time which prevented some of the plants from really thriving. I've recently started to add nitrogen and have seen a big response. We have been composting our yard clippings for 6 months and have a good supply of amendment now so things should be better when we replant this winter.
