Him just a little fella....

It has been awesome to watch all my different plants produce the vegetables.  They all produce blooms first and the magic happens from there.  The squash were the first to show any signs of life.  They grew large beautiful blooms and within a few days the squash began growing at the base of the bloom.  When you look at it, it really is a mini squash.  The next to produce was the cucumbers, and they are producing from the base of the bloom which is very similar to the squash.  However, the blooms were much smaller and took a couple of weeks after the blooms showed up for them to start growing babies.  The other difference is that these don't really look like mini adults.  They look like part of the stem and if you are not careful then you may not see them.

The next were the tomatoes and peppers.  Both plants have small blossoms.  The tomatoes blooms are yellow and the peppers are white.  Also, rather than growing from the base of the bloom, the plants bloom, drop the flower and then produce the vegetable.
