Still hot and dry in Central Missouri. Fortunately the string of 100° days was broken last weekend. The mid to upper 90°s we’ve been having this week has actually felt pleasant. Still no rain to speak of. It went north, it went south, it went east and it went west but all it did at my place was settle the dust. In spite of all that the garden is doing fairly well. The tomatoes that set before the 100° stuff got here are ripening now and absolutely delicious. Cucumbers are starting to make. Ambrosia cantelope vines are loaded with softball sized melons. 2nd planting of sweetcorn is approaching waist high. Pepper plants are loaded with developing fruit.
WOW! Your garden sounds fabulous! There isn’t any melon better than Ambrosia ... my husband’s favorite. Hopefully the heat won’t be too much for the corn to pollinate. I’ve got to get an acre or so of late corn planted. Didn’t get much of the previous plantings canned or frozen as I was in the middle of other things.
