Hi SW Friends
Well, I got the garden seeded yesterday. Feels good to have that crossed off the list. I thought I'd only leave the luffa, but the cucs and cantaloupes are finally beginning to set fruit, so I untangled the mess of vines reminiscent of Christmas lights. Hopefully, they will like the trellis; something I would have done earlier if not for the unproductive pole beans. I don't think pole beans will work for me as this is the second time trying and haven't gotten much fruit. I think the temps soar too fast for them. Sure looked beautiful, though.
I planted the handful of Fava beans to overwinter. Being in the main bed this time really ought to help them flourish. I am very excited to follow their progress. Also trying my had at brussel sprouts again. Last time they leafed out instead of maintaining their little cabbage heads. Not sure if it was heat related or lack of care, but my fingers are crossed. Turned out to an interesting plant, so if it happens again, I may just use it as a container plant.
Anyways, just popping in to say howdy! Enjoy the cooler weather!
