Autumn harbinger

The 14 day forecast shows a high of about 45 Degrees on Saturday the 23rd.  That is way too cool for us growers.  We need a couple of warm weeks to get the last plantings close to maturity by the last week of Sept.  If it slows down now, chances are we will not get the extra heat necessary before the first frost.  I still have beets, turnips, spinach and daikon that need the warm Sept. sun.  Besides, it is no fun playing golf when you are flirting with 40 degrees in the morning.
