I think we need a contest on how many times you can screw up and shoot yourself in the foot in one growing season. I have to be leading the pack by a long shot

Wrong, I am sure I own the record for the most screwups this year.I have failed to keep my plants warm and protected early on, then I nearly killed them with chelated iron sprayed on the leaves. And then I had my soil and nutrients so out of balance up that some plants are just now setting melons.Bad weather contributed some too, but I'll bet I have screwed up more than anyone.So don't feel too bad beeman. We'll get 'em next year though. lol
