LanTerra Update > Rain and thunderstorms again yesterday drive the July totals to nearly 10 inches. Two storms rage by during the early morning and late afternoon. They both just miss our town by a few miles and only dump a couple of tenths of rain.
With the rain along has come the early appearance of Powdery Mildew. I have sprayed a systemic fungicide that I found stored away in the basement. Although there is no sign of PM at home there is some on the 898 Knauss plant at Cornerstone.
Pictured is the backyard flower bed that I can no longer take care of. Too many weeds signal an end to bare earth. I built this bed just last year in hopes that I could have a nice bed up close to the house. However pumpkins are so demanding I could never find the time to hoe this bed. I finally gave into the demands of high maintenance yard work and mulched the whole area.
