Throwback Thursday Part 2
And we're back again with part 2!
Tomato by the Peppers
Honestly, these are my favorite group of tomatoes since they consistently produce a lot of tomatoes (though they are small) and just don't have that many issues. :)
Peas
The peas progress in age from top, bottom left, to bottom right. As you can see there's a bunch of rotten tomatoes in the pea bed now. We figured out that all the random tomato plants growing was because of tomatoes randomly falling and rotting before we could get to them. Then their seeds were in the ground and they began to grow (although this does not account for the tomatoes and random assortment of squashes growing in the unused planters but whatever). SO we decided to try and "plant" some in the peas. Next year, we'll probably see some tomatoes sprouting up along with whichever plant is also growing there.
Potato
The initial picture was really just the lettuce bed with three indents plus I couldn't find it so... Anyway these two pictures are from alternate views since one is in front of the two plants and the other picture is from behind.

Tomatoes by the Lettuce/Potato
These tomatoes were pretty cool to watch grow because the year previous we mainly had small tomatoes and seeing large tomatoes grow was interesting. A lot of them went to waste unfortunately :( since they developed some sort of fungi of sorts and rotted. Also some of them weren't picked fast enough or something with watering since they split which allowed for rot.

Pepper by the Tomato
It took a long time, but more and more peppers are turning green. I think at this point we need to determine a date where we just harvest all the peppers regardless of color. However, if the nice weather (a.k.a. alternating between hot and cold so fall or winter isn't a thing) keeps up, we can probably wait a little longer.
Lettuce
There isn't a third picture since, as previously mentioned, we planted potatoes wher the lettyce used to be. The one on the left is the oldest picture and the right picture is the lettuce before they started bolting and had to be removed.
Okra
The okra we almost completely forgot about until we realized that those weird branch thingies were actually okra plants and NOT weeds. To the right is when we first planted the seedlings, bottom right is okra in all of its majesty, and the bottom left are the "current" plants.
Watermelon
The watermelon was weird because we basically went all the way through July not expecting for the watermelon to survive. Then, spontaneously, when we got back from vacation in August, it was taking up the whole box. Despite this, we doubt that it will actually sprout anything, perhaps because of weather or bad timing in terms of when we placed it into the ground (do it earlier).
That should be all the plants that either we ourselves germinated, or several lovely teachers who decided to help us. There's still a bunch of other plants like the tomatoes popping up everywhere or the squash in the weed boxes. Not to mention in the kitchen box, there was a wide assortment of plants including tomatoes, carrots, some sort of squash, something that looked like grass, and beans. Sorry if there ended up being any weird formatting. I tried to fix any weird spacings but I'm not actually sure if I got them all. If you actually managed to get this far without giving up on the pictures, Congrats! Have another picture (of a round zucchini) because I think it looks cool.
