This past week, the daytime temperatures have ranged from 95-105F, humidity under 30%, gentle breezes, and terrible air quality due to the many fires west of us in the Yolly Bolly mountains and Trinity range. Three fire fighters have lost their lives while battling these terrible forest fires.
Our summer garden has been productive this year in terms of tomatoes, peppers, squash, cucumbers, kale, zucchini, herbs, and cantaloupes.
We have been pulling up vegetable plants in our sunny garden that have run their course and are now fading away.
The daytime heat has stressed all the plants despite reasonable watering.
