It always surprises me how differently the seasons go depending on your zone! I used to live in Ontario (Canada) and the common time to plant out was the May 24th weekend although I often planted out before that with few negative consequences. You, by contrast, were in full harvest mode by then. Now I live in PEI Canada and the common plant out date is not till June 11th although this year there was a frost on June 15th! It amazes me how even in our short season out here how we can still get plants to grow and to ripen! I did start everything indoors. My peas and beans grew so fast (and cukes) that I put them out early. The frost killed the cukes and the beans suffered but the peas (sugar snap, tall telephone and little marvel) grew like gangbusters! I have been happily eanjoying the peas and beans for a couple of weeks now.
Bill, I am glad that your year has gone so well. Very interesting to hear how very different the seasons are north to south. Lots of the problems are similar though. Best of luck! Pete
