Mahnin'All: Looks like we're finally going to get a break from this horrible, wet, humid weather pattern that we've been stuck in for the whole summer. We've had nothing but rain & brutal humidity for weeks. A front will finally clear us out tomorrow & dew points are forecast to drop from the 70's to the low 50's. Dry air with temps in the 70's.......my kind of weather!
Started harvesting our first veggies yesterday. Picked the first Roma pole beans & they're surprisingly good. Picked our first six tomatoes, such as they are, and they're okay. Flavor is decent, but they're small & there are not a lot of them. Just too much rain & not enough Sun. Sweet Banana peppers look nice, but there's very little flavor to them. Should be picking a few summer squash in the next couple days. They've been VERY slow coming on & they're not more than 5-6" long. Rutabaga's & lettuce have pretty much been a write-off. Not a good growing year up here.
