Pinging the list...
Here! My one five year old grapefruit seed bush is still doing quite well; unfortunately it only bloomed one bloom early on and never again.
It was hotter than a popcorn fart here in Central Missouri over the weekend. We haven’t had much rain lately and things are starting to get very dry. The kitchen garden would be suffering mightily if not for irrigation.
I got my basil starts transplanted into the dirt from their starter cells. Kitchen garden is well-weeded and everything is rocking. I have a few fist-size green tomatoes, cukes are blooming, spuds are blooming, the snap peas I thought were going to croak have even started blooming.
Got the okra planted in the kitchen garden Friday evening. Spent most of Saturday and Sunday working in the pumpkin patch. Planted two varieties of summer squash, butternut squash, cantelope, and sweet corn out there. Got about half an acre of pumpkin seeded, and all of the irrigation line has been placed and connected.
Most times I would have been able to finish that little bit of work in a weekend, but it was just too dang hot to stay out there all day long.
With any luck I’ll be able to finish seeding the pumpkin after work today.
