... a bit too cool for tomatoes and peppers.
My tomatoes have blossoms that keep falling off. I think our chilly summer is the cause. My pepper plants started from seed last March are slowly getting bigger. Ever thankful for the bigger plants I purchased and added for insurance. Not sure about the rest of the country that seems to be sweltering in the heat and humidity .. but would like to have some of the warmth arrive to set the blossoms. Today I was thankful to see the bees out once again in the backyard. Seems they were mainly collecting from the spring flowers that are now just blooming in the front yard. I have lots of clover in the back .. and now the mustard is blooming .. hopefully this will entice the bees enough to notice the tomato plants as well.
What's blooming, withering, or being harvested from your garden?
