Thanks for the reminder [livejournal.com profile] rosminah.

Everything is growing great guns, except for the carrots! The day or two of acceptably hot weather over the weekend helped to start things over again. I've had to pull lots of poppies, which in some places are crowding out the young vegetables.
The potatoes in the tires are doing great, and the taller snow pea plants are almost 2 feet tall.
Spinach plants are healthy but still small. Haven't bolted yet, and if the summer continues cool I won't have to worry about it anyway.
Corn is about a foot tall, and the cucumbers and zucchini are doing fine.
I think I will have loads of zucchini all ready at the same time, like always, and have to find homes for them.
Watermelon vines are growing but are still tiny - we need really hot weather for them to get to any size and bear fruit.
But I wish we'd have hot summers again. I miss them.

Akito arrives in ten days!
It will be a busy time, but lots of fun I think.
