Those yummy little cherries and yellow plums are all I’m getting this year. Got one roma earlier but my slicers aren’t doing anything. Corn didn’t do anything either before they died. Had to throw away all the squash because of the bugs. The peas just gave one bunch. The lettuce has bolted. The green beans were doing fine until the heat got too much for them to bloom. Getting a few cukes and put up 2 batches of pickles this week. I don’t know why but the garden is twice as large as it was last year and is producing half as much.

Same on the maters. The two plants just burst with tomatoes at the beginning of the season but now they are spent. Leaves are brown and curly and no more maters. Forget the lettuce. Tried to plant that and the seedlings took one look at the ground and committed suicide! Even the chilis which like the heat aren’t getting very big before turning hot. The basil and mint are about the only things that are still growing...
