Well, the crops are doing great, except for the tomato blight, so no complaints there.

It’s just be nice to feel like it’s summer. We have so few nice months out of the year, you want them to be as good as possible.

*sigh*

>>except for the tomato blight,<<

I found a way to end that problem. On tomatoes, beans, basil, watermelon, green peppers, cucumber, and anything else that gets it. I have a fertilizer sprayer that you put on the water hose (mine is made by mirical grow) but I put baking soda in it and thorouly wash the entire plant with it. That stopped the blight. The plants that had it are now growing and setting new fruit and the plants that didn' never got it. New plants I set out don't get it. I now wash the entire garden once a week and have no blight.
