It was so light I was able to stay outside in it while watering the dogs. It did not even make a crust on the sand.

Deck Corn: I have two more, which makes three, Deck Corn plants with those 5-6 inch round, yellow things exposed, bunches of them on each plant. I need one of you corn growers to tell me what to call these and tell me what happens next to these corn plants. These 13 corn plants were grown from Burpee Deck Corn seed.

rightly, some pepper plants now have open flowers. I lost some pepper plants that last cold day.

I didn't know how many tomato plants, pepper plants, and cucumbers I had and what types, so I made a list and I'll keep the list. They are (remember all are in containers):
Peppers:
5 Hot Pepper Mixture
3 Pepperoncini Hot Pepper
3 Sweet Banana Pepper
2 Fooled You Jalapeno Pepper
1 Sweet Baby Bell
2 baby new ones are Sweet Pickle Peppers

The four tomato plants I raised from seed and planted first have blooms and three have very small tomatoes. Those four are:
Tomatoes in very large two tomato containers:
1 Sweet Million
1 Fourth of July
1 Cosmonaut Volkoy
1 Better Boy

Other tomato plants that are smaller and some of these need to be replanted in larger containers but some are already in large ones:
3 Cosmonaut Volkoy
3 Mortgage Lifter
4 Tycoon
1 Sweet Million
2 4th of July
2 Cherry Punch

Cucumbers grown from seed are all blooming and they are:
7 Homemade Pickles
6 National Pickling
2 Supreme Hybrid - I raised these from seed and only 2 survived transplanting and they are not hardy so won't grow them again.

sockmonkey, the over 4 ft. tall Tromboncino Squash has two blooms as of this morning and plenty of them waiting to open. The smaller T squash planted later, number 4.

There are numerous other plants out there but they are not as numerous as the above. However, there are about 38-40 strawberry plants. The Egyptian Onions look like something from outer space as they go through their walking cycle.
