Status post for mid-June 2018. Our two apple trees (a Fuji and an Anna apple) are planted and seem to be doing well. Our tomatoes are producing fairly well, though we tied them up a bit late, so they look scraggly. Peanut plants are getting larger. They used to have flowers but now don't - this worries me since that's happened before, but we'll have to see how it goes. Our watermelon plants (3 of them) are going insane, flowing off the garden bed and several feet out into the yard. We have at least 3 watermelons so far, with the largest about the size of a large tomato (?). Our strawberry plants (forgot a picture) have been branching out, the lettuce and snap peas have died off. The tiny lentil plants are still growing, but not making much progress. The grapes are a mixed bag - some are attached to the wire, while others haven't made it yet. Blackberries are doing well, but need some grass trimming done soon. In the back yard, our large Pecan tree is putting on leaves, but, despite us hearing about this being a fruiting year for pecans, we can't see any signs of fruit just yet. The blueberry patch is doing ok in the dedicated peat moss bed. Finally, the cacao seeds are rising up and starting to get tiny leaves inside. I think we only have 2 that haven't picked up their seed heads so far.
Sorry for the wall of text; I write these in a hurry these days....
