We’ve had pretty good weather this past month–timely rains in about the right amount, temps in 70s or low to mid 80s most days. Vegetable garden doing great this year, the fruit mostly a bust, though. I had good success with my grafts, at least.

95 yesterday and today and tomorrow…then we might get a break with rain and cooler.
At least the cooler part…but we need the rain, too. Been very very little most parts of Kentucky in about 5 weeks.
(And, we may still be above average for the year, but that’s not much help at present.)

Been raining all weekend and this morning , I hope it’s done. Flooding will ensue …

We’ve been pretty lucky here… small rains every few days have been the norm the past couple weeks. I just mowed for the first time in probably 2 weeks so that has been a nice break.

57F last night. Like free AC with the window open. 84F today and 87F tomorrow before the high temps will “only” be in the 70Fs the rest of the week. A nice preview of fall. Next good rain doesn’t look until late in the weekend.

We desperately need rain. It looked like we were going to get some rain yesterday but the clouds just gave me the finger and went the other direction. Not very nice if you ask me.

I understand. But if you want high brix fruit drought is the recipe. Ask Alan he’s been hoping for a drought for yrs. As long as the trees aren’t dropping leaves wholesale it’s not too dry.

The fruit I grow is just a hobby and does not pay the bills, our farm is what needs the rain.
This is our corn from earlier this year.

Not many real farmers on here. That does look ugly, really ugly. Not much to call soil from the looks of it. I’m from the Midwest and a dairy/hog farm. Cultivated lots of corn, as in weeding with an 8 row cultivator. I think that’s what we called it. Then grew some corn during my work with A&M. So I feel your pain. I hope you get the rain you need…!!
