Lettuce Harvest

The two varieties of lettuce that I'm growing that were found to do best in warmer temperatures have proven to do very well. Both the Pirat and Nevada have resisted bolting so far.  The Pirat is now at its limit for heat tolerance, while the Nevada, which happened to be partly shaded by its neighboring plant is showing no signs of bolting. 

Thinning Peaches

Thinning peaches was very hard to do. Something about removing peaches when I know I'm going to lose many to squirrels went contrary to what I feel that I should do. But to get bigger and healthier peaches one should thin them out to about one peach per every six inches.
