    Maybe 40 but I did something incorrectly because they are a bit smaller than golf balls and ideally should be closer to tennis balls.

    Did you plant them with a golf club or tennis racket?

    Sounds like some nice size heads unless it is elephant garlic.

    Golf ball sized seems about right for normal garlic.

    I like the idea of tennis ball size ones though,

    Those beefsteak tomatoes are delicious.

    Last year, I had a volunteer corn stalk alongside my house. This year it's a volunteer zuccinni plant. One of the ****s is around 5". I never knew the leaves on these could get so big; w/o taking a tape measure to it, I'd guess around 15" long by 12" wide.

    I have an unusually nice crop of purslane going too (whether I want it or not).

    Purslane is edible. I used to get a lot in my yard when I lived in town, but I never tried to eat it.

    I've munched it raw, plucking some as I walk by. It's good but it's on the ground for cryin' out loud - that's waaaaaay down there, ya know? Some people like to cook with it or add it to salads, but again, there's that word... effort.

    Harvested the basil for a fresh batch of pesto that I'll throw on some shrimp later.

    A little dirt never hurt
