My wife’s taters are starting to pop up out of the ground and we have some squash plant she planted that looks like some kind of alien thing. Leaves 10 inches wide or more. Will follow up with pictures tomorrow if possible.

It's easy to Google them but basically they are pickles that are preserved (up to one year storage life) with boiled salt water and garlic cloves.

This heat is taking a toll on gardens and farms. Little gardens like mine can be watered; I’ve probably got 1/4 acre. The real farmers are about to be in trouble if not already

Especially those that raise and bail Hay. We're not seeing hardly any bailing going on around here. Higher Feed prices are inevitable and we all know what that will eventually lead to with most of our Meat Products. :dont: :roll: :banghead: :whiteflag: :deadhorse:
