May 20th Garden in

A new layout this year made more room for smaller plants like onions.
June Growth / Problems
June was one of the hottest on record, until late in the month rain arrived. Something is eating the onions. Most are all gone.
Mike put his gma's famous tonic on the plants in late June, need to write down the recipe.
automatic watering doesn't seem to be working. Need to check the timer.
Hail in June
A huge storm pushed through on a June evening. The hail was only nickel in size, but the winds helped to make the hail more damaging. Amazingly this guy recovered.
July - first harvests Growth / Problems
We harvested all of the radishes on July 1. Many had been eaten by what we suspect to be a racoon.
Also got a nice tomato on the 11th.
A good amount of rain in early July has been a godsend for the garden. We got rain every day for at least a week.
The squash looks great and has little ones busting out.
