Still amazed each time i read this https://www.bbc.com/news/stories-48968502

One of Ginx old flip phones?

PC skies, 77/55, With gusty winds out of the NW top notch day.

Yup, Summer has arrived, 81/62 with a nice breeze out of the WNW.

Where’s the Davis pics?

Glad we don’t live there.

If you believe in jinx’s ,Yup it’s me, It will give a few others on here a break.

Oh you mean when the drunks from gobblers knob pull the gopher out of the stump after binge drinking all night? Got it.

2010 comes to mind now that you mentioned a shit season, Enjoy your summer, Been here for 63 yrs haven’t missed a winter yet , Some good ones some not but that’s why we have avgs, I’m shooting for 64, Right now it’s Christmas in July, Most GF and wives are celebrating the season so I’m all in too.

Can’t wait, Sorry Tip, Not really though.

Oh joy.

Figured today was a great day to fire up the smoker and do some St Louis Bourbon style ribs, Marinated 24 hrs in Jim Beam and a brown sugar/paprika rub.

Those are delicious.

66/65°F, A few sprinkles here and there, Stagnant airmass.

I can grow "Any" and all things green..................

200x200 and another lot 100x90

Looks like its short lived, Hopefully it wets the asphalt.......lol

If a mod wants to move all this to the banter thread, By all means, Getting some peaks of sun here now with temps slowly rising, 71/67°F.

Both of those are a good varieties, I love growing different variety of peppers, Of course on these days that are in the 80's here, The garden temp is 100°F+ as it faces SW, Which peppers and tomato's love the heat.

Thanks, I already have Cherry and Beefsteaks and tons of flowers too, I hit those containers weekly with 2 ozs of liquid cal/mag+ made by Botanicare, They need a lot of supplements on the uptake in this growth period before flowering, I also mix in a cup of dolomite lime into the soil before planting, As well as a 2x2 strip of 10-10-10 fert, That prevents BER, (blossom end rot) It may also be the variety you have planted, I prefer the beefsteaks or better boys, Its more of a firm tomato which are great for burgers or sandwiches as well as marinating them.

Once you top them, There growth upward ends, I'm going to let them go to there max, That may be only another 5-10' or so.

Thanks, It was a lot of work originally but makes for a great natural barrier from the neighbors...

Thanks, I had made sure i selected pyramidal s so they would be tall growers, Where those are, I have no drainage issues as its in a sloped area of the yard so those are thriving well in the 20' range and filled in too as i had planted them 39" apart back in 2007, They also are a great nesting sanctuary for birds as i have had multiple nest on the ground with damaged eggs.

Yes, Short for Arborvitaes, Improving the drainage will be problematic for those on that side, We will give them some lime though to see if that helps, I have 57 others around the property that are in much better shape then those two as you can see in this pic...............

Sun is making an appearance here now as well, That may not be a good thing as its going to increase the shower threat.
