Wish we had some of your rain, Old. The storms have been about 60-70 miles north of us. In the last 3 weeks we've had about 1/2". The broccoli and cauliflower bolted early with the heat. First planting of corn and green beans was spotty, but they're coming along. The beans are making, should have first picking next week. This time last year, we'd canned and froze 58 quarts. Cukes and squash are behind, too. They're flowering, about 10 days till first harvest on them. Picked a quart of blackberries in the last 2 days. The canes were planted last year, they're coming on like gangbusters. Okra is about 10" high and coming on strong, too. Bannana peppers are putting on, the bells aren't doing as good, but OK. Tomatoes are blooming good. The potatoes bloomed, going to try to get some in a week or so. Those veggies are at our home garden. At our other land, we've hilled up 135' rows. Starting a market garden, set up the rows about 8' apart to help work with a tractor. First row is more blackberries, then okra, green beans, squash, and, pumpkins. We planted it kinda late because of the wet weather, it crusted pretty bad and our germination rate was poor. I've had to haul water over there, it's been so dry and the last few weeks. Going to fall crop more beans, turnips, broccoli, and cauliflower. Mark
