Relax. It's only a small setback.
I was one of the first 300 contributors to the plant database!
Sorry people. I had company for the last week, and had to clean the house real well before then (can you spell exhausted?) I love the pricing of the Ebay hoop houses and free shipping! Definitely a must here with our cooler nights and short summers.

Our lousy western WA spring left me with 2 washouts of cuke seeds: I have two pathetic plants with no sign of blooms, several 2-3" summer squash and still enough lettuce to feed every rabbit in King county :)

BUT, BUT, BUT look what my dear mum brought all the way from her lovely, hot midwest garden: oodles and oodles of tomatoes with flavor! This is just a portion of what she hauled out. We had salad, we had BLTs, we had sliced tomatoes all week long and I enjoyed every cubic microgram of them. I've only had maybe 20 cherry tomatoes, a couple romas and more ripening up now, from plants from my pal Eweed here in WA. He's smart and grows in greenhouses/hoophouses all season too. That is my goal for 2011.
