A few of the cucumber plants survived but not many. I make my own relish and dill pickles, so I need quite a few cucumbers. Last year I didn't get any plants, so this year I really need quite a bit. We went to the green house, picked up some plants, and reseeded a row too. So now I have about 5 different stages of growth in my cucumber rows. Everything from vineing and blooming to just poking out of the ground. Should be interesting. At least they won't all be ready at the same time! LOL
The corn survived beautifully!! 3 nice rows. Should have lots of Corn-on-the-cob this fall!!
There are still a few pumpkin plants and a few butternut squash plants, guess we'll see how many "fruit" we get.
Bought some more onions too. Had one row - which seems to have survived after being sprayed. So now I have 3 shorter rows.
So we bought 12 more tomato plants, and out of the 12 that got sprayed - only one died. Oh dear, we will have a lot of tomatoes.
