gravitylover Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 .12, drizzle fading out now. A few more tenths would've been nice but the hours of heavy fog helped. Hopefully get a bit more tomorrow before the heat. I was thinking that this rain pretty much ensures that the first few hot days will be super humid. Yuck.

gravitylover Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Unfortunately that's the stuff that's gonna thrive. So much of it is from tropical/semi-tropical parts of the world and it loves the heat and humidity. Shit, the knotweed is already 10 feet high When that stuff does well it steals moisture and nutrients from my food plants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised it grew so fast, it wasn't anything like this last Friday, can it really grow this fast in 5 days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Pretty much, yeah. But, my indeterminate string beans and tomatoes are growing 8-12" a day so I guess that's not bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomatoes and beans are the best and if you get a bumper crop they'll last you until next year (I freeze whatever tomatoes I don't eat right away or share with neighbors.)
