Worried about your warm weather plants? Think about the
hours of sunlight (even with clouds) that they are enjoying without hot winds or
heavy rain. My friends who are the real
experts say that now that the sun rises at 5:30 and sets at 8:30 the tomato plants
are very happy no matter what the temperature. It is not too late to plant tomato plants, but
plant them deep. We still have vigorous
and large plants in 20 varieties that you can still enjoy this summer.
Don’t worry about the cool temperatures, only the cool
nights. Many gardeners cover their
plants when the temperature approaches 50.
The best is still a ‘wall ‘o water’ but there is a risk of burn when
there are no clouds. We will have a week of clouds. The cloud cover will make
your peas and greens very happy too. Unfortunately, weeds are happy too. Leave
your shoes outside…..
