Well, it wasn't a great year for anyone I know in the mountains with a garden. The spring and early summer were so wet, I think it really hurt a lot of things.

I had sugar snap peas grow like crazy. I'm going to plant a lot of them next year and have a good trellis set up. The Rocky Mtn Corn did well too. I need to get it planted earlier next spring. Some herbs did just fine, but not as well as usual. Strawberries did ok. My wild raspberries hardly fruited at all and they are usually covered with berries.

Cucumbers grew nice sized plants, but never fruited. Weird. Jalapenos, which usually grow awesome up here, never took off and I got very few peppers. Same goes for bell peppers.

All in all, a crappy year for crops. I don't think the Hugel bed was the reason though. I had herbs in pots that struggled all summer too. The experiment will continue next year.
