zone 7 -- nonproductive veggie plants :

Square Foot Gardening List - http://myweb.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

I'm in zone 7, right outside DC.  I have a v. small sq ft. veggie
garden, fairly shady -- only partly sunny at best.  It does get bright
light all day & full sun 2-4??? hours a day (4 is an exaggeration!).  

I have 5 or so tomato plants, with a few  blossoms on 2 of them.  My
July 4 tomato plant isn't even waist high yet!  (it's July 17).  No
tomatoes!!  I also have 6-8 pepper varieties/plants, with 3 small
pepper on *one* of the plants!  Lots of blossoms on 2 or 3 other
plants.  Also, basils & misc!

I know I have too much shade, but since my neighbor's tree is dying, I
thought perhaps enough of it had died to allow me to grow some
tomates!  Should I just pull them at this point in the year & plant
something that will grow in the m-t squares??  What do you think about
the peppers?  

TIA, Judy
