I guess I shouldn't be too surprised , the temps here have been in the
mid-to-upper 90's for like 8 weeks runnin' now . And yes, they've been
"hydrated" , and no I didn't overwater them . The ones next to the house
that only get part day sun are doing better , but still not well .
On another note , the zucchini's have started to come back , got 3 fruits
on the one that was least affected by the borers , flowers on another ,
and the third is hangin' in there .
Cantalopes are doing well , and the cayenne pepper plants are loaded .
I've started watering the "wild" grape vine . I suspect the reason it's
never set much fruit is because of dry spring weather . If we're still
here next year , I'll find out ...

It's time for potatoes to start dying back. They are basically done, dig up
a hill and you should find full grown potatoes.

The blueberries are fruiting like gangbusters. I'm picking 3-4 gallons every
other day. I'm wasting away, but the chiggers are fat.
