August 22

Okra plants are starting to mature slower.  Tomatoes have only green tomatoes, some of the plants have good foliage--the early blight is subsiding maybe. 

All of a sudden bean beetles are a big problem.

Harvested most of the first fruit of the eggplants, starting to see new leaves on the plants.

Harvested some beets.  Aphids a problem on the green chard.  The yellow glads are most of the remaining glads blossoming.  Dahlias starting to blossom more, though the 3 new dahlias were blossoming earlier (only one stem there?)

Harvesting peppers.  The butternut squash is good, the others are mostly dying after producing one fruit, which Lisa hasn't used.

At the house, the impatiens are terrible, some of the hostas are showing yellow leaves, and nibble by deer.
