April Showers were great!
We had a few rainy day, but now the sun is shining again and my garden plants are happy. Sofia is happy too...she can play outside in her playhouse and sandbox while I putter around.



The romaine is really good....I have been using it for salads.

Tomatoes galore! I counted 41 total on all my plants. Wow!!

My red and yellow peppers are producing as well.
I have a few more plants to plant: Strawberry, watermelon, yellow squash (my squash did not do so well last year they were mutant looking), and cucumber. I need to go out and get more pots.
Happy planting!!!

Has the the cold snap hurt my plants?
We've had a very wet and cold week. Rain and temperatures in the 40's and 50's. Today it is finally sunny and warm. Looks like my plants have all held up well.
I believe that unless the temperatures fell below 35F, there probably is no permanent damage to the plants. Just give them a week or two to recover. They should then produce a normal harvest. It's just that it will be a couple of weeks later than normal. If you had just transplanted very small plants, they may go through a shock period but should do fine.
My tomatoes still have blooms but overall look pretty good.
