Pic 1: some cool small tomatoes and some rare old varieties (the big orange ones and the medium red near them, they're the best I've ever had) i was lucky to find
Pic 2: golden onions, so good to make onion rings
Pic 3: Tiger melon, pineapple melon, cantaloupe, and the two green ones are ancestors of today's melons, which were cultivated for at least the last 400yrs in southern Italy, they are harvested not fully ripe and used as a cucumber. Slightly sweeter and more crunchy than cucumbers. They grow in many different shapes and size).
Pic 4: 4 varieties of zucchine
Pic 5: potatoes, unfortunately with many holes
Pic 6: Tropea red onions, unbelievable, you can make caramelized onion with it without adding sugar. Next year tho I'mma replace them with a local variety o found that has the same sweetness but is more delicate and less acidic.
A very happy summer! Since this is only my second time growing stuff on my garden, but I'm improving and finally starting to find heirloom varieties and keeping seeds
