i recommend planting again, particularly the lettuce. you can keep planting the lettuce every couple weeks & get a continuous harvest up 'til Fall.

i plant a new patch of radishes every week or so & already harvested some. my acorn squash and cucumbers now have their first secondary leaves. my mild jalepeno pepper plant has 1 tiny fruit. i have 4 varieties of tomatoes growing vigorously; cherry, beefmaster, and 2 varities of roma.

slugs ate most my black-oil sunflowers as they emerged so i'm starting new seeds in egg-crates; the slugs don't seem to go for them once the secondary leaves come out, so i'll wait for that before planting.

i planted milo (sorghum) but none has come up & i'm sprouting some new seeds on wet paper-towel swatches.

that's a wrap.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
