Unusual Spring weather this year

b54red · May 2, 2023

Wow we are having a real spring this year with some fairly cool nights and days that aren't getting into the high 80s yet. As a result my late planted broccoli has done great but now the days are getting a bit hotter and the sun is taking a toll on lettuce and broccoli. The tomatoes are loving this weather and setting nice so far. Peppers are also trying to set fruit early so I am still picking them off until the plants get large enough to support large bell peppers. I just planted my cucumbers and will set out squash this week unless we are forecast any cold nights.
