Cooler Weather, 'Maters Feeling Better
We've been in the 80's for the last ten days and the tomatoes are loving it! They're putting on new foliage and flowers. The dwarf plants seem to have hung in there better than the regular tomatoes. This is Pink Passion with two new fruits ripening and more flowers.
EM Champion, though, is going nuts all of a sudden. That wispy foliage has looked frail and iffy all summer but now it has really perked up and the plant's loaded with flowers!
Meanwhile the fall Blue Lake beans have popped up. There's another bed with Providers in it and those are just starting to pop up. Maybe now I'll get enough to can up!

I’ve got to get more beans planted especially seeing yours.

Re: Cooler Weather, 'Maters Feeling Better
We had some hot hot days, too. Everything stopped producing. Pole beans kept growing but wouldn't give me beans. Then it cooled down, and so I have giant bean plants finally putting out beans. Should be a good harvest! My cantaloupes liked the hot weather, I haven't really grown them before, so I had no idea they would.
