Do you stuff and fry the zucchini blossoms?

Mix goat cheese and either cream cheese or ricotta, lemon juice, basil, fresh parsley, salt, pepper, and onion. Make a simple beer batter (flour, beer, baking powder, salt, pepper). Deep fryer on 400 for 2-3 minutes.

I use rice flour and club soda for a tempura batter too. And let's be honest. It has to be ricotta.

We don’t stuff them. Fry them flat in a frying pan with very light batter, add a touch of kosher salt, serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping. They’re ridiculously addictive, like potato chips. We just did a few dozen the other night.

maybe I did this wrong with just a bump to the original thread. a new thread asking about results might be a better way. anyway, how would you describe your crops thus far? are those in ground figs? brown turkeys?

This came from somebody else's garden:

I think a rabbit. A lot of snapped zucchini stems and chewed up leaves.

Here in August, the tomatoes should be raring to pick. But they are not maturing well. Not sure if it's because I planted late (late June - cold weather), or not enuf fertilizer along the way. While the soil was prepped, I used a garden fabric this year to keep the weeds down. Unfortunately, that made it tuff to apply fertilizer thru the tiny openings for the stems. So after a few weeks of surgical applications, I just thru it on the fabric thinking / hoping rain and irrigation would dissolve and pass thru the fabric to the soil / roots. Maybe not??

ps - fabric seemed a good way to avoid lots of bending, etc. Had hip replace this spring.

Or a groundhog.

Just made a nice sized batch of salsa with nothing but fresh ingredients. Restaurant quality.

I lost my yard to my German Shepherds, so I did container gardening on my from porch. I have broccoli and red cabbage coming up very late, and many hot peppers. The habañero and Thai chile are flourishing, and my ghost peppers are just now ripening. I have two Carolina Reaper plants that have about 20 green peppers on each.

why would our cucumber and tomato plants all be turning yellow and dying? Is that a sign of slugs? overwatering? It's been happening at an accelerated pace over the past 2 or 3 weeks.

Slugs would leave holes in your plants and over-watering would be hard in this heat unless your soil is just not draining.
