jdmidwest Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 Spent the day in the garden yesterday, tilling, cleaning and redoing. Planted beans AGAIN. Planted a few more squash, cucumbers, lettuce and spinach. Tore up a strawberry patch and moved some to the garden and replanted the rest in the patch I tilled up. They needed thinning out. Picked a couple of apples. Watered it morning and night, this heat and dry spell is not doing much good.

Quillback Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 All I have left is tomatoes, cantalope, peppers and one watermelon that refuses to get ripe. This heat has been brutal on the plants.
jdmidwest Posted August 12, 2010 Author Posted August 12, 2010 Finally got 1 1/2" of rain this afternoon and a little relief from the heat. Cucs, squash burned up this week even with extra water.
