Those Bok Choy varieties are both gorgeous! :) Yes, Fall growing will be better for them, I think.

We’ve hit 4” of rain, now, but right now the sun is out and the clouds are clearing - I watched the temp in the greenhouse go up 30 degrees in just a few minutes, so I ran out there and opened it all up.

My tomatoes that were planted yesterday are looking wonderful and PERKY today. They should be fine since our night-time temps aren’t falling below 50 degrees. It’s still going to be overcast more than sun, but they can live with that. :)

Peppers are re-potted and will stay in the greenhouse for one more week - just to be sure.

4 inches is a lot. We're getting some heavy rain with pea sized hail at the moment.

I was just about to look up insect netting for my new Bok Choy/Tatsoi fixation. Such cool looking plants, nutritional, easy to grow with some caveats regarding bolting when it gets warm OR when it gets cold. Really weird and seems to depend on what part of Asia their from. They would look a lot cooler without holes in the leaves though.

I was out there at 2pm and did a taste test. Not the best time of day but probably means something. Chijimisai was the best. Cross between tatsoi and komatsuna and it beat the tatsoi right next to it. I've had komatsuna before and it beats that at the mid afternoon, grab a leaf and eat it test.

Don't know if I'll ever grow it this nicely but I'll try. I love veggie porn pics and Baker Creek is good at it. All it needs is a nice steak sitting there.
