It was another week of normal August misery here in Central Missouri. Hot and humid. Rained Saturday morning.
I’ve given away a full bushel of pole beans over the last few days. I’m half tempted to pull em out by the roots so I don’t have to keep picking every other day. Same goes for the okra. I think I’ll be better off if I get most of the garden cleaned up before we run off to Sunny Florida next month. On the one hand it’s a shame to tear down things that are working, but the other hand is dealing with an overgrown, tangled mess when we get back home.
I didn’t do much of anything in the garden over the weekend. After the rain stopped on Saturday I got the pressure washer out and cleaned the roof on the toy hauler trailer. Yesterday I replaced the lids on both roof vents and put three coats of rubberized paint on the roof. I also gave the roof of the pump house a good heavy coating. Potting shed needs it too but I’ll wait until I tear the busted roof off of the greenhouse to do that one.
If they don't have fungal infections or are molding out probably easier to pull now and compost.
If you don't check back in, have a good FL Vacation!
