| This spring and summer in Ohio have been difficult, to put it nicely. But it must be perfect for the vining plants as they are all doing great. Also have a bumper crop of onions. Still waiting on tomatoes, early potatoes did okay, but late potatoes (main crop) mostly drowned. Hoping third time is a charm for green beans, and so far so good. Just planted carrots for fall, and also started cabbage and kohlrabi plants. (Kohlrabi also makes excellent pickles.) |

| I live in S.E. Ohio and we have had some 'different' weather from the usual. Lots of rain, but our rains have been interspersed with sun, and there have been a lot of just showers. My garden has been a thing of beauty this year and the biggest challenge is keeping the weeds under control, with the almost constant temperatures and high humidity. I have had issues with fulvia fulva on tomatoes and this is a first I have ever even seen it on outside plants. It's usually a greenhouse issue. They're still producing and are just starting to ripen with no damage to the fruit. Very bland taste this year, but I expected that because of the rains. So far the yields have been lower than last year's but still quite ample. Low insect pressure. The horrid winter had one good effect, I guess. |

| And if you add some black currant leaves, some sour cherry leaves and horseradish root/leaves... The fragrance is unbelievable) |
