Weedy weather

Sing that title to the tune of "Stormy Weather".  Weeds are the watchword for the week and weekend.  Every day you don't kill weeds is another losing day in the long term battle.  As I told one friend, if you can see the weeds, you are already in danger of losing the crop.  Especially with the weather we have had recently.  You can spend 2 hours removing weeds from around your plants, and a brief shower will just transplant them in the area where you dropped them.  The cooler temps are also favoring the weeds over less vigorous competitors.  Off and on showery weather will challenge the best intentions this weekend.  I have to transplant the tomatoes, peppers and eggplant this weekend also.  It will be hectic.
