After a wet spring and a dry summer(only 1.5" of rain in 2+ months) all eight of my plants fizzled out on me. Some from vine borers, two from the roots not developing and one from herbicide vapors. My computer was down for over a month and I sure could have used it to figure out a few things. Anyway, I'm looking forwards next year and good luck to you all. Tom

I hope to be around next season Tom. We sold our house and have to find a new patch ERR,I mean home! I will be able to harvest for the September fair though. It's been a tough season for a lot of folks this year weather and pest wise. Now is a great time to start working on next years patch!
