Have some special things to accomplish later in the week, so limited time for getting mundane stuff done this week. Making for a busy couple of days.
Had to pull weeds this evening. I have most of the weeds under control but grass is still a problem.
Watermelon a, pumpkin and cantaloupe are coming up. Hope they can survive the grass growing around them.
I have had a couple of small cucumbers so far. Since the main thing I grow them for is pickles, the size is okay. I do hope to have a few larger ones later.
I planted a couple more containers this evening, two with pole green beans and two with red potatoes. May be still too hot for potatoes to start but it is beginning to cool down and I think they should grow eventually.
Several tomato seedlings coming up. Still hoping they'll have time to produce this year. Two plants seem to be doing okay, coming up from cuttings.
Not sure what the deal is but a lot of the sunflowers are falling over this year. We've had some wind but not really enough to cause that. Maybe the roots aren't growing deep enough but last year they stood up and it rained/remained more damp than this year. Maybe it's because they started late and tried to grow their full size, so became top heavy. Just strange. Most of them are okay.
Have to get some sleep tonight.
