My garden this year was hideous. I mean, like really the worst one I've had in over ten years. Not only was I gone for most of the critical planting and harvesting weeks of the spring and summer, but it was really, really, really hot! Thankfully my teenager planted peas early and they were amazing. Unfortunately the last 1/3rd were wasted because we were gone when they should've been harvested.
I bought some cantaloupe, investing in plants which were already started and planted them with a lot of hope. They're doing well so far.
Then, on Saturday, I planted again. I'm hoping that the lettuce, spinach and radishes make it. I also planted zucchini. The four 2016 seeds would've probably not been good next summer, so, why not?
Wish me luck!
27 September update: Cantaloupe looks good! radishes and lettuce still going. Not sure the zucchini will ever make it.
