One of those years
[
A few random pics of some of this years garden. 2nd week of June and we are on a 5-6 week stretch of perfect weather. May has been warm with some timely rains. Have not watered anything except at transplant. Still trying to get more beans up and cucs. All warm weather crops have popped. Squash, zucchini, many basil, ocra etc.
Been eating lettuce, spinach and other greens since mid April. Most of this was under plastic in March and early April. Close to 4 doz. heads of lettuce with only a few remaining. Sierra and Lolla Rossa will go into next week when it hits the 90 deg. mark.
Garlic looks like it always does. 4 more weeks of getting fat before they're done.
The point I'd like to make is this years weather, so far, has made gardening idiot proof. Plant, water in, walk away and let your soils do the rest.

It looks fantastic! The lettuce looks great. The heat is turning up next week so it will be time to harvest.
