Tomatoes, Okra & Cold frames

     I'm still harvesting green tomatoes here and they are wonderful & delicious fried. I can't believe my best tomato harvest of the year is green ones in November!
   
     I am also still bringing in okra seed for next Spring. I've harvested almost a quart and a half of seeds and have more ripening on the stalk. By the end of picking and such I expect to have a quart and 3/4 if not 2 whole quarts. If there are any like me who waited last year until all the seeds sold out of the stores, I just may become the okra seed Baron if my area!

     It's still too warm to actually install my cold frames but I have them set up and in place for when Winter does arrive. For some reason, I cannot seem to grow a head of lettuce nor any member of the cabbage family: cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, etc... greens just don't seem to work for me, at least not yet. Perhaps I'll have better results in Winter.

     My yard, especially the back yard when walking around is like the dark side of the Moon except covered in grass. By that I mean that there are so many craters ans uneven areas. Many I believe are caused by the rotting stumps of pine trees that my neighbors tell me once lived here.
     Come Spring I'll be ordering a truckload of what the lady at the company calls "brown dirt".  I reckon that's just what she says it is... dirt! Anyway,  it'll fill in (hopefully) all the holes and I can more or less level out the yard and make a better garden for years to come.
