It went from winter one week to extreme heat the next. New heat records set in Flagstaff. Also new heat records set in Las Vegas. Here on the bench it has been running in the high 80's and 90's.
It was overcast yesterday so I transplanted out some of the petunias, pinks and marigolds. Hot today but all but one marigold looks ok. Got lots more flowers to transplant out so hoping for another overcast day to get it done.
The monsoon season should be here pretty soon, unless some quirk in the weather screws it up too. I hope to have all the flowers transplanted by then. Fingers crossed.
Got new tomatoes, and pepper plants and they are doing good so far. A few potatoes are starting to come back from the frost but Phillip will have to replant more. Last year we were eating new potatoes by this time. We did have our first batch of chard, and the radishes are all eaten and the new one are coming right along. I don't know how they will do in the heat. Peas are setting on good so we will have peas next week. No new potatoes to eat with them though.
I doubt if there will be any even when the beans are ready.
Gripe Gripe Gripe....That's what I do best. Granny
