And most of the plants are happy about it. We were happy to discover that the shade screen didn't block too much of it from the planters. Everything got a good shot of rainwater.
We've been fighting the good fight against the stink bugs and we've been slowly losing. We pulled the zucchini when it stopped producing and was just a breeding ground. The pumpkins were hit next and now they seem to have moved up front to the cucumbers.

| The eggplant LOVES this weather. |
 |
| Replanted some summer squash. |
 |
| Purple Jalapeno flowers. |
 |
| We cut back some of the tomatoes to see if they start back up. |
 |
| We've been disappointed by the peppers this year. They are all leaf and no flower. |
 |
| As are these cucumbers. Overflowing from the planter, but nothing to pick. |
 |
The Basil has been great. We've been much more diligent with the harvesting
and it has kept the flowering at bay. |
We've ordered seeds for the fall plantings. It hardly seems possible that it's that time again, but here we are!
