I also pulled up all the peas, spread compost, replanted pole beans (Kentucky Wonder) in their place and made a bean trellis. I also planted rainbow carrots, nasturtium and bush beans (Tendergreen). The bush beans were planted close to the asparagus. I noticed that most of my potatoes did not grow (only a handful of plants came up), so I filled the gap with bush beans. There is still some space between the beans and the potatoes, which I likely will fill with salad greens. I moved the pepper plant because it was shaded by the cucumber foliage. I sprinkled Epsom salt around my tomatoes and gave everything a good thorough watering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"695\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/cucumber-flower-07_14_2019.jpg?resize=695%2C750&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1659\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/cucumber-flower-07_14_2019.jpg?resize=949%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 949w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/cucumber-flower-07_14_2019.jpg?resize=278%2C300&amp;ssl=1 278w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/cucumber-flower-07_14_2019.jpg?resize=768%2C829&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/cucumber-flower-07_14_2019.jpg?resize=1100%2C1187&amp;ssl=1 1100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/cucumber-flower-07_14_2019.jpg?w=1186&amp;ssl=1 1186w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><figcaption><em>Cucumber flowers<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The garlic has started to yellow.
