We are in many different areas... what are you doing in the garden? What are your high and low temps currently? A few of my volunteer tomatoes started turning a bit lime green so looking at nitrogen or too much water or humidity in the tunnel... I started by checking ground moisture levels where 2 beds were on the dry side and one bed on the wet side. Thinking nitrogen could be the issue up front, I added fish hydrolysate and liquid hemp to the rain barrel and set the pump to come on for an hour 3 times today letting it soak in a bit between as I turn a compost pile I am working on. I also hung a mesh bag of worm casting in the barrel with a small air pump keeping it oxygenated. Temps in the low 70'sF (21C) this week with night temps around 40F (5C). Plan to pull the poly probably later part of the week. I need to cover the pump and controls for the rain barrel system. Weather moderate although I know overnight, nature will turn the heat up; just a matter of time. Spinach went to seed and sugar snaps peas doing the same. Still have a little lettuce growing under the tomatoes; pruning back the daikon radishes for airflow; adding them to the compost pile.

Before adding more plants, cover the soil. Use sheet-style layering on top of the soil: - compost - leaf litter - hardwood mulch No digging needed. This begins to: - hold moisture - soften rainfall impact - feed soil life - reduce stress in the system This one step changes a lot. Have you added mulch or compost on top of your beds this season?
