Heatwave
Hello , I’ve been offline. Yesterday y til Sunday we have a heatwave here LI NY. Well I have a plot in a community garden because I have nowhere at home, anywho I’ve been sick the past couple of days I wasn’t able to put up my tarp . This morning I went over and all my tomato plants were sunburned. I watered them and all my other veggies and put the tarp tent up. 🤞they will bounce back. On the plus side I had my grandbabies put seed starting soil in all the cells for our fall crops. Please all stay cool-warm and dry all. Happy 4 th weekend

This heatwave has been one of the worst I can remember, at least since I've been gardening. It's brutal here as well. Take care of yourself. Sending grow vibes your way that your plants will recover with the loving care you set them up with.❤️
Deer
A deer eat all my big cucumber leaves off my plant. The picture you see is before the deer eat it.The big leaves they eat but there are three small leaves still growing. Will the plant survive?

Deer are notorius here at my house as well. Finally fenced in the major part of our container garden. I still have pots of all sorts on my patio. They are brazen enough to walk on up onto the patio and help themselves to my strawberry towers. I place netting on my towers to keep the deer out. As Manitu said above, barriers are the best way to keep deer off you plants. Once they find something they enjoy, they will come back. 🦌
Crazy Weather
Just thought I would check in with everyone. The weather here has been totally off the wall this past couple of months. The last couple of days have had flooding diasters all around us. Forutnately, while we received some crazy inches of rain, we managed to not suffer the flooding of areas very close to us. I know others are having extreme heat, which is headed here starting tomorrow. When Mother Nature gets in these moods, it can have some serious impacts on our gardens, our homes and our lives. So I just wanted to check in with all of you to see how you all are doing. I know not everyone is being impacted by these extreme weather conditions, but for those who are I just wanted you to know that we are thinking about you. If there's anything we can help with, please don't hesitate to reach out. We have members in all 50 states and I'm sure if someone can help they would be happy to.🪴

I must say I am jealous. My tomatoes are no where near this stage yet. These look wonderful and healthy!🪴
