Saimme todeta ett\u00e4 meill\u00e4 on itseasiassa kaksi erilaista luumupuuta. Korkeampi kaksirunkoinen on luultavasti keltakriikuna ja matalampi enempi pensasmainen yksil\u00f6 on punavioletti luumu. Viime vuonna emme edes tajunneet kriikunan kypsyneen, joten kaikki hedelm\u00e4t olivat joko maassa tai lintujen sy\u00f6m\u00e4t ennenkuin her\u00e4simme tilanteeseen.

Sis\u00e4lt\u00e4 makeita, kuoresta kirpakoita. Se kulhollinen tuli nautittua tuoreeltaan.

Mainitsinkin jo aiemmin ett\u00e4 vaalimistamme 15 (!) kirsikkapuun taimesta, jotka olivat kev\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 t\u00e4ynn\u00e4 kukkia, saimme t\u00e4n\u00e4 vuonna per\u00e4ti kaksi kokonaista kirsikkaa! Wau mik\u00e4 sato. No itseasiassa t\u00e4m\u00e4 ei minua oikeastaan harmita sill\u00e4 ainoa tavoitteeni oli p\u00e4\u00e4st\u00e4 maistamaan. Ja p\u00e4\u00e4sinkin. Kirsikat olivat h\u00e4din tuskin sormenp\u00e4\u00e4n kokoiset, niiss\u00e4 oli enemm\u00e4n kive\u00e4 kuin hedelm\u00e4lihaa ja maku oli niin hapan ett\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4timme n\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 kirsikkatarhalle moottorisahaa ja hankkia paremman makuisia taimia puutarhalta. Ne istutetaan parempaan paikkaan, sill\u00e4 nykyinen kirsikkatarha on eritt\u00e4in huonossa paikassa. Arvelemme ett\u00e4 kyseess\u00e4 oli ehk\u00e4 koristekirsikka. En tied\u00e4 vartetaanko kirsikkaa, mutta se olisi tietysti toinen vaihtoehto, ett\u00e4 vartettu kirsikkapuu on aikoinaan kaadettu ja n\u00e4m\u00e4 ovatkin sitten sen tyven sy\u00f6m\u00e4kelvottomia j\u00e4lkel\u00e4isi\u00e4. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>T\u00e4ll\u00e4 kertaa eniten harmittaa kuitenkin rohtosuopayrtti, joka ei vain tahdo menesty\u00e4 ja vanhat suopavarastoni alkavat huveta v\u00e4hiin. Se on todenn\u00e4k\u00f6isesti liian varjossa, aurinko ei taida siihen paistaa oikeastaan lainkaan. Olisi pit\u00e4nyt saada aikaiseksi jo kev\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 siirt\u00e4\u00e4 se aurinkoisempaan paikkaan. Kaikki t\u00e4m\u00e4 jossittelu ei kuitenkaan ole hyv\u00e4ksi. Sen verran olen saanut asiaa edistetty\u00e4 ett\u00e4 olen kev\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 kaulannut keitti\u00f6puutarhan vieress\u00e4 kasvavia haapoja jotka imev\u00e4t lavakaulusten kosteuden ja ravinteet. Sain my\u00f6s kaverilta lis\u00e4\u00e4 suopayrtti\u00e4 jotka istutin uuteen, aurinkoisempaan paikkaan keitti\u00f6puutarhan kivipenkereen viereen raivaamaani uuteen kukkapenkkiin. Pienin askelin siis kohti parempaa! Ja ensi viikolla on taas l\u00e4\u00e4k\u00e4ri, jospa vaikka p\u00e4\u00e4sisin rauta-infuusioon. Pit\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4 peukkuja. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ai niin, onhan minulla yksi onneton kes\u00e4kurpitsan taimikin. Sekin taitaa k\u00e4rsi\u00e4 ravinteiden puutteesta, sill\u00e4 lehtivarret ovat kiertyneet hassusti itsens\u00e4 ymp\u00e4ri ja melkein sulkeneet kaikki kehittyv\u00e4t kurpitsanalut sis\u00e4\u00e4ns\u00e4.

Saattaa se viel\u00e4 ehti\u00e4 tehd\u00e4 kes\u00e4kurpitsan tai kaksi, mutta ep\u00e4ilen. Vett\u00e4 on kuitenkin tullut ihan riitt\u00e4v\u00e4sti t\u00e4n\u00e4 kes\u00e4n\u00e4, joten siit\u00e4 asia ei ainakaan ole kiinni. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"214\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/inenglish.gif?resize=214%2C100\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7004\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Harvest season is at it&#8217;s height and it&#8217;s time to talk about what we did right and what was a fail.

This area, on the border of second and third grow area, is really successfull with berries and fruit this year. They practically grow on their own, I don&#8217;t really have to do much more than just collect the harvest at correct time.  We found out that we actually have two different plum trees. Higher tree is yellow damson and lower, more bush-like tree is purple plum. Last year we didn&#8217;t even realize damson was ripe, untill all fruit were either eaten by birds or rotted and fallen on the ground. So this year we didn&#8217;t even remember that they were actually yellow. However this time we kept better eye on the tree and amanged to get bowl full of greenish yellow damson. Now we just wait for the purple plums to ripen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currant were turned into juice as soon as they were ripe, because we consume it a lot. I cooked black currants from our yard and red wine berries from mums yard into delicious juice in two batches. I also collected quite a lot of apples from mums. There is four different kind of apple trees there. I don&#8217;t know what they are, but three of them are more acidic and one more sweet. There is also fifth apple tree which is decorative apple. I have never really understood the concept of them. Apples will become dried apple slices and pasteurized apple juice. Like I mentioned, we use lot of juice, I am juice monster to the core. Last Autums juices ran out just when I was bottling new batch. This year there is slightly more than last, so there is no need to be stingy. Later this month I will go and pick the sea-buckthorn berries and turn them into special luxury juice. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"493\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/harvest24_8.jpg?resize=800%2C493\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/harvest24_8.jpg?w=800 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/harvest24_8.jpg?resize=300%2C185 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/harvest24_8.jpg?resize=200%2C123 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/harvest24_8.jpg?resize=768%2C473 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>\u00c4idin pihassa kasvaa nelj\u00e4 erilaista omenaa joiden lajikkeista minulla ei ole tietoa.

If you recognise the variety, please let me know in the comments. From left to right:<br>1. Almost white with small pink markings and stripes. Flavour is spicy, acidic but sweet, reminds me of cinnamon-apples. <br>2. Similar to white transparent, colour is pale yellowish green, juicy and sweet, bruises easily and goes bad fast. I&#8217;m pretty sure it&#8217;s not white transparent though, because it doesn&#8217;t go transparent when it&#8217;s ripe.<br>3. Red-and-green apple, some are more red, some more green. Spicy and acidic, similar flavour than cinnamon-apples, possibly an early cultivar of cinnamon-apple.<br>4. Most acidic of these four, almost completely green apple, with a hint of red on some of them. I think it might be one of winter apple variety. I like acidic apples, so to me it tastes already pretty good, but the flavour might improve later in the autumn. <\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>I have also got pretty good harvest from sage, parsley, peppermint, irish lace marigold and also from  red veined dock. Later I will be harvesting also mums horseradish and my own jerusalem artichokes. This year I got more perennial herbs. Sage and irish lace marigold don&#8217;t hibernate in Finland, but peppermint, red veined dock and horseradish should. I brought some horseradish from mums yard to ours, but that might have been mistake. I have heard that it is easily spreading and difficult to get rid later. Well, I planted it in one of the raised grow box, so we will see. If you got any good recipes for horseradish, please share. I would also like to have tips for using chokeberries\/aronia berries. Mum has huge bush and we also have little bushes, which might actually give us some harvest this year, unless the blackbirds get there first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What about the failures then. Tomato plants I got, snapped in the storm, onions didn&#8217;t really grow much and rest of the plants I didn&#8217;t even sow. I know that most of this is due to my own poor energy levels and fatigue. Tomatoes would have been saved if I would have straight away supported them and protected them against wind. Onions would have grown if I would have remembered to give them nutrients. I already mentioned that we from the 15 (!) cherry plants we got, which were full of flowers btw, we got the hole of two cherries! Wow, what a harvest. Well, actually this doesn&#8217;t upset me much. because my only goal was to taste them. And taste I got. Cherries were just barely the size of my finger tip, there was more pit than flesh and taste was so bitter that we decided to show the cherry trees our chainsaw. It&#8217;s better to buy more flavoursome cherries from nursery and plant them in better location too. We assume that these are actually decorative cherries rather than edible ones. I don&#8217;t know if cherries are grafted, but that would be other option if the actual cherry had been cut down and the non-flavousome root just started making saplings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However this year I am mostly upset about soapwort, which just doesn&#8217;t grow in current place. My old harvest of it is running low. I think the plant is in too dark place, I don&#8217;t think the sun actually shines there at all. But all this &#8220;only if I&#8221; is not good for me. I have managed to get something done to improve my kitchen garden. I have prepped the aspens for cutting them down. They grow nearby my garden and suck all the water and nutrients from the grow boxes. I also got more soapwort from a friend. I planted those nearby the kitchen garden. So baby steps towards improvement! And next week I have doctors appointment again, perhaps I can finally get the iron infusion. Keep your fingers crossed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oh yeah, I do have one sad zucchini. I think it might also suffer from some sort of lack of nutrients, leaves are somehow curled around themselves and almost closed all fruit inside themselves. In the spring there was only one sort of flower blooming at once, so there was no way they were pollinating. It might still produce one or two fruits, but I doubt it. There has been plenty of water this summer, so that&#8217;s not the problem. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"612\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_4.jpg?resize=612%2C1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_4.jpg?resize=612%2C1024 612w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_4.jpg?resize=179%2C300 179w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_4.jpg?resize=120%2C200 120w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_4.jpg?resize=768%2C1284 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_4.jpg?w=800 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Surkealla tolalla oleva kasvimaani. \/<br><em>My sad uncared kitchen garden. <\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"663\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_5.jpg?resize=663%2C1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18555\" style=\"width:730px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_5.jpg?resize=663%2C1024 663w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_5.jpg?resize=194%2C300 194w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_5.jpg?resize=129%2C200 129w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_5.jpg?resize=768%2C1187 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evildressmaker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/harvest24_5.jpg?w=800 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Piparminttu viihtyy.
