Strawberry Fact or Fiction?

I heard recently that strawberries taste sweeter when served on a white plate rather than a black plate. I actually have no idea whether it's true but I can attest to the fact that these beauties from my own garden tasted delicious with my cereal!

Mmm mmm good!

Dreaming of my own Tomatoes!

At the moment there's not too much to do but check on the rooftop situation every week or so and add fertilizer (since I have quite a few blooms). I think we are a bit behind as we've had lots of rain and not as much heat and sun as we sometime do in June - or maybe I'm just not remembering correctly!

Every year the zucchini have started off well and then done poorly. I added compost to the grow bucket - I hope this year might be The Year of the Great Zucchini!

The hybrid Brandy Wine, bought on a whim.

My first tomato. They all look fine but I did have to pluck off several brown or spotted leaves from all the tomato plants. There are lots of blossoms though so I am hopeful! I'v also planted beets - my first time every. The ones on the rooftop and fairing much better than those in my traditional garden.
