Been a bad spring here too; all the fruit trees started blooming in early April because we had beautiful weather, all the vegetables started coming up and the corn got to be about 4” tall. Then we had about 18 days of 15 to 20 degree weather, killed everything off right down to bare mineral soil. At the beginning of May, weather immediatly went to 104 up to 109 and not a drop of rain. Started the irrigation system up and tried to replant all the vegetables and corn; some of the stuff started to sprout and at the end of May, BANG!! right back to 20 degree nights and 28 degree days. Now it is the end of June, but I will try again for some of the summer crops before I start on the Fall cycle.

I hope the third time is a charm for you. You have sure had some bad luck.
