Good morning gardeners. We got a real good soaking rain yesterday evening. Thank goodness for that. I suspect there may have been some overnight showers as well. Did my morning pea picking. I have 2 lbs. in the refrigerator and I remembered to make ice so I can freeze those peas today. I think I will pick the rest of the lettuce either tomorrow or Tuesday. This is the best crop of romaine I have ever raised. Apparently they like being planted with peas. But the butternut squash plants want to take over so the lettuce needs to be picked. The tomatoes are doing well. I have mini tomatoes on the cherry clusters and on the small slicing type tomatoes. There is a male squash flower starting to bloom along with the developing squash. Buds starting to form on the zucchini. And the cucumber plants have finally woke up and started to spread out. The poison ivy on my hand is clearing up and a little spread to one side of my face. It's not so bad. Benadryl is my best friend. I'm hoping to get some flowers planted today and a few other odd chores out of doors accomplished. Have a great day everyone, and stay cool!
