Summer Slowdown
2 containers have been retired from the summer garden and 2 more look like they're on their way out. The remaining plants however still look great and have a lot of fruit on the vine.

Major Haul
The garden went crazy while I was away. It was incredibly nice to come back to such abundance. As an added bonus it looks like I caught all the hornworm caterpillars. I was fully expecting to come back to at least one devoured plant, but no. No more plant damage!
