This is one of my best gardening seasons yet, having started 6 or 7 years ago. I have 3 raised beds, with 1 dedicated to strawberries. I have 2 blueberry bushes in large pots. Only half the blueberry crop ripened properly, apparently the rest were set back by the late June heat wave. We had abundant sugar snap peas, only a fair amount of shelling peas. Lots of lettuce in the first 2 crops, going to begin a 3rd today. Carrots and onions look to be doing very well, and 2 crops of radishes. Beets are doing well. First crop of spinach went well, but the second disappeared shortly after coming up - slugs maybe, or too hot at the wrong time, I don't know. Green beans are going gang busters, as are the Sungold tomatoes. I planted a couple Muskovich tomato plants, and the tomatoes are good, but there are not a lot of them.

I learned that my tomato cold frame has turned out to be a "hot" house, and too hot in the hot weather. The clear plastic roof I installed on it a few years ago has burned to brown and black from the extreme heat. And the tomato plant leaves are all curled from being too hot. I just read that tomatoes prefer 80* days and 60* nights, so I'll be making adjustments to the cold-hot frame so that I can adjust the temperature a bit next year.
