We had our first sub-60F overnight low on September 12th. The highs are still in the lower 90Fs though.
Yesterday Kevin cut down all the infested corn stalks. We will throw them all away. The stray tomatoes are bearing large tomatoes, the shell peas are coming up, and our turnips are HUGE! I will soon start my fall crops. I have carrots and onions coming up too, and the strawberries keep on growing new runners.
I noticed a small colony of Praying Mantids by our front door last night. There were at least four outside staring at the bugs around the front door's light.
Monsoon ended as well on the 12th, but I am still using harvested water for the garden.
