OK, enough already with the rain. It's been gray, and 15 degrees colder than normal all week, and it's continuing to pour, drizzle and pour, 4 inches. We live in the "convergence zone" of Puget sound which is where two weather systems reunite and collide dropping a lot of rain. But this is October weather, not June weather! All of the native vegitation is flourescent green. The hostas are HUGE. Inside their hoophouses the pumpkins are barely growing. Meanwhile the mildew lies in wait and the slugs are slithering everywhere. Started 100 AG seeds for Sunday School classes, and they are germinating well with ample bottom heat. C'mon sunshine.
