Well, just when we thought that good weather was truly here, we had a dip in the temps down to the 40's. Not good for the melons or tomatoes.
I got a lot of the beds prepared. Potatoes planted, peanuts planted, corn planted, watermelon planted, peppers planted, and rosemary.
Melons didn't flourish. So I'll try again with the extras. Tomatoes I went ahead and just brought them back indoors in the 3 inch pots.
Lettuce and spincah is growing like crazy. High winds Monday broke one of our young apple trees in half. So thankful we avoided the tornadoes-they passed north and south of us. Hope you are all well and not unduly put out by the stormy weather too.
Have a great weekend. God Bless.

Here’s a good review of those “As Seen on TV” expandable hoses. The biggest drawback seems to be you can’t really use a sprinker with it.
Over here Overtaxed...
We were fortunate as well to have missed out on the worst of the storms. Not much going on in my garden at the moment aside from watching it grow. I did get some straw down around one row of potatoes, pulled a few weeds, and picked a nice salad for yesterday’s supper.
The tomatoes are starting to bloom, broccoli and cauliflower are making heads, cukes, ambrosia melons, spaghetti squash and okra are up and looking good.
