Organic Early Yellow Crookneck Squash. Water weekly on these, producing in 50 days. Unfortunately, they aren't getting a heck of a lot of sun, so don't expect much.
All Season Burpless Cucumbers. Supposed to be productive in hot or cool weather, mature in 60 days. Of course, that's IF you planted in a sunny area, which I did. That is until the neighbor's trees filled in.

Tomatoes and Peppers '09
Tomato starts from Love Apple Farm have been planted in three different places in the new yard. Unfortunately, I think half of the plants are going to be sun-starved. Planted in the front of the house:
Planted in the back yard, a lot less sun exposure:
C = Good for coastal climates
Peppers
Got these silly plants at the Alemany Farmers Market. Suspect I planted them too soon. They aren't looking so great.
Mucho Nacho Hybrid - Heavy producer. Thick, meaty 4" long fruit, longer, wider, heavier and hotter than standard jalapenos. Matures in 69 days
Thai Peppers - very hot, tiny red peppers
Kung Pao Hot Pepper - 4" long curved, skinny peppers that mature from green to red. Thin walled, easy to dry
- Taxi - Yellow, round small/med 65, high yields, fruity taste. Determinate. C.
- King Pinapple - bi-color round, large 95, biggest on the list
- Black Ethiopian - Purple, Oval, small 70, high yields. C.
Planted in the back yard, a lot less sun exposure:
- Black Bear - Black round, media 80, pinkish black.
- Hawaiian Pineapple - Bi-color, round, large 85, sweet. Luscious and Lovely, they say.
