The heat of summer has already hit here in south Texas, and it’s been over 100 for several days in a row with highs hitting 103-106.

We might get a ‘break’ on Tuesday along with a cold front and some storms, but everything else that was predicted to come our way has missed, so…
I’m getting cucumbers, a few young Luffa (although they’re inadequately shaded — I didn’t realize that these plants don’t seem to grow as densely as needed to survive the intense Texas sun), most of my Romas are ripening on the vine, and the Sweet 100’s are still setting fruit despite the heat.
