My 5th summer garden: Expansion and more beans

Mr. Pappy
from the radar, looks like ya'll are getting a fair amount down there. I hope it does your garden good. I put out a lot of fertilizer on my field corn earlier this week, and a good rain sure would help it.

It’s best we’ve had in weeks. Now I gotta let the lightning pass so I can turn off the sprinkler. Hope u get some of it upair as well.

I picked some some green beans, maters and the first okra this morning. Starting to wonder if I will get sweet corn, since only .27 in of rain for the past 16 days and none in the past 10. I could add some drip tape, but letting it run its course and only watering the rows with tomatoes and pepper. Stalks got big early, but little ears at this point. I don't know if the green beans will make it until the next rain chance without a pop up shower. Lots of plants laying down and turning yellow this morning. At least there is no new weeds to deal with.

It’s dry no doubt, a rain would be great
