Oh, it's been humid. And hot! Thunderstorms threatened just about every day, today we had a doozy. No damage here, but lots of branches down on Main Street I heard someone at the store say he had a 60' willow hit by lightening.
Corn is about 7' tall, starting to tassel. Masses of green tomatoes. Bell peppers are about pingpong ball size, many, MANY jalapeños. Onions are good. Had a meal of green beans yesterday. They're about 6" long, ready to pick. The bean tent blew over in the storm, I'll have to fix that tomorrow.
Thinned the carrots and covered the bed with the strawberry screen to keep birds and bunnies off the lettuce. So far so good.
Raspberries are about a week or two off, and very plentiful. Can't wait. I'm going to move them over to the orchard next spring - will prepare a bed this fall. Strawberries will move too, fall or spring? I'll find out.
