After pulling out spent plants all day yesterday, this made me laugh a bit.

Between the squash bugs and the heat, mine is kaput.

My garden is beautiful.....even with the extreme heat. Invested in a couple of soaker hoses after the four rain barrels went dry. Hopfully we’ll get a soaker soon and fill the barrels.

Picked cukes, squash and beans this AM....Plenty for us and some to share to share.

Our church planted a praise patch. Produce is either distributed throughout the community. Those who can throw in a little for the food bank, otherwise it’s free to those who can’t. It’s is not only beautiful but plentiful.

Just harvested the last round of maters... Now the two plants are wilting in the oppressive Houston heat. Time to till and refresh the barrel. Maters

When it comes to gardening - I go straight to “It’s Dead Jim!”
