Fig, pepper, hazelnut,raspberry... - August 3

I finally got the figs.
Yes, there are only three of them, but I had to pick them.
In our family, I'm the only one who eats them, so there will be too many for me.
Today it was 36 degrees Celsius, yesterday it was 38, so the watering of the fruits and vegetables continues in full force.

I am satisfied with this one fig tree that has produced well. The hazelnut tree has also produced a lot of fruit.
Now they are slowly ripening. But we have a little problem, no matter how many hazelnuts we break open, there is nothing in it at all.
I did some research, they say it is some kind of worm, a beetle that gets into it while the hazelnut is still forming.
And that it should be sprayed with some kind of chemical in the spring.
They say once it gets in, you can just drive it away with a broom.
I am not really for that, but it seems I will have no choice.

The raspberry managed to recover and bore fruit.
It's not much, but it will make my son sweet.

And our peppers are turning red.
Both varieties are starting to turn red.
This system with hay and a watering system has proven itself well.
We also added posts and twine to secure the peppers themselves so they don't fall over in strong winds.
Other gardeners say peppers are demanding, but we all love them so we don't find it difficult to grow them at all.

I wrote about zucchini in a past post.
This is becoming a real jungle with them.
But they still produce.

The tomatoes are still holding up well and bearing fruit.

Melons are progressing well, they have a lot of flowers, although this is a small experiment with them, the progress is good.

The Helichrysum arenarium was in bloom, but due to temperature turbulence, it is starting to bloom again.

Hot peppers and both basils do well in pots

We created a jungle around the fountain, there is a blooming albition, and even a hibiscus has a few flowers.
There are cypresses, roses...

Your plants are so nice, all have fruits even the tomato leaves changed but still have fruits. The peppers look amazing, so clean and red.

Thanks
I think I'll install a drip irrigation system in my blackberries and raspberries next year. They require a lot of water.

It's so hot in your area. It can kill plants😔 but anyway you still have lots to harvest. Is 38 a normal temperature in your place?

It's not a normal temperature, it's a bit extreme
But our entire region of Southeast Europe is under the impact of climate change

Hello @markone85 It's been a while, I got too busy these past few weeks and it's really nice to be back seeing your garden again. Those red peppers and tomatoes are feasts for my eyes! I crave for vegetable salad with those looking juicy tomatoes! Wonderful! Your garden is becoming even greater than before! And of course, the berries are doing great!

Happy gardening!

Thank you, there is a lot of work to do in the garden and around the whole household. Some days I can hardly wait for winter. And in winter I can't wait for the garden :)
