This has been the worst year EVER!
Average temp for July has been 75*!!!!!
I get a few squash per week and have found a few tomatoes and cukes.
I'm usually up to my ears by now!
I still have a couple of months to go, hoping! Nancy

pretty worse around here as well.

lots of green tomatoes - we're just seeing the first red ones.
lima beans are late late late
huge cuke vines - no cukes
potatoes tops died off early from the heat - got potatoes but mostly small ones
jury is still out on the carrots
green beans and was beans doing well.
peas did a two cropper and croaked from the heat.
loose leaf lettuce did surprising well - planted in the shade this yr
planted a double raft of scallions and they have done well - still eating them, unusual for our area.
one single patty pan squash harvested . . . I think I'm going to rip the plants out this weekend - they are _huge_ - lotta space, no eats!

Well, now it's over 100*! and the fruit won't set on the tomatoes! LOL One way or another!
I'm getting ready to just clean out a couple of beds to get ready for fall! It always baffles me here in No CA. We can get tomatoes, and most other stuff in a normal year through Oct and even Nov! That leaves no where to plant the winter stuff unless you want to start yet another bed :D :D :D
