Weather & Conditions Partly cloudy warm July day with a low of 75°F and a high of 91°F. Average humidity was around 67%, but early morning it was in the low 90% range. No wonder I started feeling it mid‑morning. Planting & Transplanting Today I planted six more Big Beef tomatoes in Rudy’s Radish Ranch,
Weather & Conditions A possibility of a rainy morning, and we had rain yesterday. Low 72°F and High 85°F. I made an executive decision: since I had picked enough cucumbers to can, and even if the weather turns nice they are still calling for rain later, it is not a good fall tomato planting day.
Weather & Conditions Partly cloudy. Low 72, High 87. The weather report is calling for rain around 3 pm. Today is a light day as I have my “Documents.” This is what I always told my grandson I was doing. I really am a community volunteer consultant for the FamilySearch Center. I decided there was
Weather & Conditions The temperature has dropped, but the humidity is so high it still feels well into the 90s °F. Low 75, High 87. I got to the Pickle Patch before sun‑up to do the baking soda spray on the basil plants. After I got halfway through, I realized I didn’t put the vegetable
Weather & Conditions Cloudy this morning — looked like it could have rained — but it cleared up to partly sunny. It’s a good thing I covered the tomato mounds I prepared yesterday because we ended up getting almost a 1/4 inch of rain. That was enough that I couldn’t till the Back 40 tomato
Learning Plot Hot, humid day with a few clouds and maybe some rain later this evening. Low 76, High 93. I usually go to the Learning Plot first, but today I stopped at my shed in the Pickle Patch to get the 8‑24‑24 I forgot yesterday and to check if anything else had germinated in
Spraying A cloudy day, which was nice for a change and good for spraying. L 79F and H 88F. I thought there was only a slight chance of rain, so I sprayed Captain Jack’s organic Copper Fungicide on just about everything. As it is about this time the humidity cranks up and the popup summer
Today was an easy day, but I still woke up early — which worked out perfectly for my weekly 6 a.m. gas‑up at Sam’s. After that I popped next door to Walmart. They still have seeds and supplies, so I checked to see if they carry copper fungicide, but they didn’t. It’s fine because Sammy
Learning Plot & Morning Rounds Another partly cloudy day, but we had about 1/3 of an inch of rain yesterday afternoon and it feels very humid today. L 72F H 88F. As I drove into the gardens I stopped at the Learning Plot and just checked on it as I didn’t need to water today.
Weather: Overcast morning, but I caught a beautiful sunrise at 5:51 AM — and a shot of me standing in the garden with that dramatic orange‑pink sky behind me. Low was 74°F, and with possible showers today the high isn’t crossing the 90°F mark. A rare treat: a cool 87°F. Morning Work I mixed up
