I picked some pepper yesterday and we stuffed they a while ago. They are just about ready to eat.

I planted some squash and cucumbers yesterday to get them started.

Cucumbers are [were] still growing good, but starting a few weeks ago, they tasted very bitter. Maybe 1 in 10 was good to eat.

It is about time to pull up some plants to get ready to plant fall garden.

Good news Buba our long beans are still making in the heat and though they slowed they never quit. turned out to be a great summer thing with no sign of quitting it was pretty much plant and forget pick every other day or so all summer.

Just picked 2 hand fulls of long beans and a dozen okra's. But thats it. Every thing else has either died of thirst or burnt up or both. I did notice however that the volunteer squash that completely retreated now has a lil patch of green in the middle it amy come back this fall who knows.
