So far no problems. I have a Brandywine Orange tomato starting to ripen as the first to do so. Some of the peppers are starting to get some size - finally. And a squash will be ready to pick very soon - watching every day. Probably my most successful garden ever.
Usually I'm fighting Blossom End Rot or horn worms. I save all of my egg shells throughout the year and crush them into the fall and spring every year and bury them in the garden. Perhaps that warded off Blossom End Rot.

My problem is sometimes, ‘catfacing’ so I’m looking into what to do about that.
My tomatoes are all blooming and fruiting, so today they are all getting a kick in the pants with a good shot of liquid tomato fertilizer. Nothing fancy - just the one Miracle Grow makes. :)
I’m trying to stay consistent with the watering, as we have had nothing but DRY to start the season. :(

Wa8ting eagerly for yellow squash and zucchini- we use them before they get huge, slice and boil, then add butter salt and pepper- I’m not a big veggie person but do love yellow squash this way. (Green beans and carrots too). Summer is the only time I get any real veggies
