Hot Hot Heat

This past week it has been hot here, like 90-95 degs!  My plants are going gangbusters, except for the beets which didn't transplant at all.  Reminder for next year, just plant seeds in ground and do not transfer.  I think the mulch has really helped the soil retain moisture as I watered on Sunday and Tuesday but not Monday.   We have also been harvesting the tango lettuce.  It has a tangy flavor and ruffly edges.  It's nice to have a really fresh salad every day.  I've been picking the biggest leaves every couple of days.  The romaine lettuce is growing nicely as well.  I bought the starts at a store and am waiting till the heads are just the right size and praying they don't bolt with the heat.
