Rainy Day Blues
The unusually heavy rainfall is playing havoc with gardeners this year. My little arugula and lettuce plants are looking a bit sick - too much water, too little sunlight. I hope they can recover! My pepper and eggplant seedlings are doing well indoors, but my tomato seedlings are becoming spindly and weak - a symptom of too little sunlight. (Note to self: invest in a grow light!) I may cry real tears if they don't survive. My mushroom plot turned into a stream this spring, curtailing mushroom season. It's all been frustrating! With more rain in the forecast, I guess I can only do my best with the circumstances I'm dealt. Another lesson that my garden is teaching me - when the unexpected happens, adapt! Happy Mother's Day!
