Ok here is my front yard for the next 7 weeks. Patiently waiting for November planting season to come around.

Tomato horn worms. Kill it. They can ravage your whole garden in a day.Good luck!
We should probably do the same with ours - start fresh with our lawn. We've got quite a few varieties of different grass growing, all at a different pace, from previous owners of our house. It's quite frustrating sometimes.
We created a delicious fresh pasta sauce with our garden beefsteak tomatoes this week. It was sweet and chunky, just how I like it. Our grape tomatoes are starting to decrease production, which is fine - we have sooo many to last us. Caught a few giant caterpillars munching on the tomato plants.
The zucchini plants are just about done, and the open space in the garden have been taken over by the strawberries, although we haven't had a single fruit from them since June. I think we have something eating them.
Our snap beans, finally recovered from being ravaged by the japanese beetles, are producing like mad. I have a gallon bag of them in the freezer because there's too much for us to eat.
The wife has requested another planter box for next year, so I think we can call this year a success.

I’ve had some monarch caterpillars on my milkweed, but I think the birds get them before they change to the chrysalis stage.Good luck!

The other day I had two records waiting in a cart, but then I thought,”That is about 5 plants,” and left them in the cart.
