# 2016 Balcony Crop


Our 2016 balcony crop has come in. A bit of a disappointment this year, as we were away for most of August, and were not able to care for the garden as much as we would have liked.

- The corn was harvested too late - by the time we returned home, it was overripe and tasted pretty gross.  It looked OK.
- Our sunflowers and some of our other flowers died
- Some of our carrots fared well and tasted great, but another planter of carrots died
- One of our tomato plants died, the other is still doing well and bearing a couple ripe tomatoes every day

I need a balcony friendly watering system!
