So glad to hear you are on the mend. Rain was predicted here yesterday, but not one drop fell, and now the chances are gone until the end of next week.

I’ve be pruning things, started fall tomato plants. Have some volunteer swiss chard up, and have been looking through seeds to plant for fall. Luckily, the moon dates for above ground cropas are next Sunday & Monday, August 3rd & 4th, so I can procrastinate a few more days.

I cleared out everything in the gound last week. I took cuttings from 7 tomatos to try to start a fall crop. It looks like 4 may survive. I also cut all the peppers and both tomato plants at ground level in my raised containers. My three peppers that were in the ground got dug up and potted. That would be 1 cayenne, 1 jalapeno, 1 chilitepin.

It sure looks different with just mater stakes in the garden now. They seem to be doing better than our maters did this year. We got exactly 0 maters. Thank you Rocky Raccoon or Mr. Crow. You just wait...
