I made a serious effort to grow a variety of vegetables this year. You know the lbs of veggies in a 1/4 acre stuff?
It was a cold start to the year. Still too cold in May to seed completely.
I did everything completely from seed this year, usually it's half and half.
Half of the seeds did not germinate. Got some seedling replacements from a friend. Everything is up now, but It's the first week of August, and there are no veggies. It's not the seed, the seedlings aren't producing either.
A few sad cukes, a tiny bean, but no tomatoes or green beens. Only the collards and arugula made a serious showing, and only half of the arugula sprouted.
The weather has been cool, with only a few days above 75. It's been below 75 all this week. Night time temps are in 55-655 range. it's looking very much like it's gonna be an early fall. I'm considering ripping it all up and planting a fall crop, I don't think the tomatoes or peppers are going to fruit grow and ripen before the temps really drop.
How is everyone else doing?
