Mid-July Garden update

[Jennifer Bradshaw]

The camera is still down, but the garden is coming out with a vengeance, despite the lack of press coverage:) The squash is especially loving the recent hot weather, unlike the peas, who are struggling... We're still getting handfuls of snow peas every day, and the tomatoes (whoohoo!) are not just flowering, but we have our first tiny tomatoes on at least a couple of the plants I put in as starts Rather unexpectedly, the topsy turvy tomato planters, with two plants in each, are doing so much better than the one in the ground, but the theory is, I suppose, that the roots get more warmth in those things.

My containers of lettuce, radishes and shade flowers, are also thriving, though I may need to do some moving around so the radishes and lettuce get more sunlight. Lots of great big green leaves all over the place:)

The warm weather has vanished once again, and we've got another windy, cloudy day, that's all humid and yuck. It's still cool right now, but we'll see if we end up roasting again like we did yesterday.
