Tis the season. We have lots of lemon and already picked 3 GIANT oranges.

That's great. Something to look forward to once this little fellow has a few more years growth.
 
It's the middle of November and I'm still getting tomatoes and peppers. Insane!
Yes, we are too, but not a lot now. We had a cool damp end to summer which definitely slowed things down and introduced powdery mildew and late blight into some of the tomatoes.
 
Looks like I may be getting my first frost tonight, time to pick the last tomatoes and bring the citrus inside.
 
Last week's pepper harvest. There are still some ripening outside but I don't know how well they're going to do.

We took the last tomatoes, bell peppers, banana peppers, and parsley yesterday. It's done here.
 
Winter gardening hydroponics this year. The lettuce is ready for a second picking. The basil has already been picked once. When mature, these two plants will fill the gaps completely I hope.

I got a great deal on the second Amorning unit, just $32 which is about half of what I paid for the first unit last year. The left one has strawberry starts from our garden and the right one has tomatoes, Tiny Tim on the left and and Siam on the right which just got planted and is starting to sprout. I'm giving them a lot of room to grow based on last year's experience.
