My peas, lettuce, and broccoli are loving life out there, but my poor cuke, tomato, pepper, eggplant, and such seedlings are whining at me from the window, "We want sun! We want sun!" Sigh. You can please some of the garden some of the time, the rest of the garden some other time, but give up on pleasing all of the garden all of the time... Chri Have a Jimmy Dean breakfast product and maybe Mother Nature will start to cooperate I don't know where you are in New York but I spent most of my in the Binghamton area so I remember your pain. Hang in there, June will be there before you know it. MJ I'm in Rockaway- New York City. And I swear some of those lettuce plants have doubled in size in the last 3 days. Chris Hi - I'm in the NY Catskills, and haven't seen more than a few fleeting minutes of sun in so long my joke is that I don't need to wear eyeshadow - the green mildew is doing the job :-( I'm glad I didn't waste money and time starting seeds or buying plants yet - the ground is so consistently soggy the only thing growing is weeds and fungi :-P Oh well, we had a wet Spring a couple years ago that abruptly turned into premature August, so next week I plan to take my wallet and heart in hand and get some starts - tomatoes, peppers and petunias mostly, and hope for the best. The weather map right now looks more like a Nor' Easter than a "normal" Spring pattern, but that can change - and usually does, so I keep hoping ;-) It is bad here in Michigan also. My garden area is sill muck. My lawn was mowed today and was very tall and wet clumps and tire streaks left behind. Today was a nice day got up to 70F. Tomorrow looks nice also. Scattered Rain for Sunday thru Wednesday. Will it ever dry out? At least my rain barrels are full incase of a early dry pattern. -- Enjoy Life... Nad R (Garden in zone 5a Michigan) |
