Sure felt like it yesterday, dlg! Calm and cool this morning, though my garden looks a bit forlorn. I have all the rows hilled up, so even though the garden is in a low spot comparatively, the raised rows should be able to dry up in the next day or so. I am really glad that I resisted the urge to mulch more of the garden. I keep my garlic mulched with oat straw so that the cloves are sheltered and protected from temperature extremes throughout the winter, but that's the only mulch in the garden. My neighbor mulches everything but corn, and because of this stretch of wet weather, he lost about all his cauliflower, broccoli, and cabbage to slugs and had to start more plants in his greenhouse. Slugs thrive under wet straw mulch!dlgoff said:You're not in Kansas anymore. Oh wait. Maybe you are.
