Helloooo! I am back from my weeklong vacation and I am thankful to each and every one of you for being patient with me. (It was also the first vacation I’ve taken from Youtube since last fall and I really missed sharing the garden with ya’ll!) It can be difficult to take a vacation from the homestead or garden!
My lovely farm sitters took GREAT care of my garden, but unfortunately, not all of my plants survived the 100+ degree days we’ve been having on this desert homestead, and today I am taking you through the garden to see what plants thrived, survived, and died during my week in Missouri.
ALSO: a little fact about tomatoes you may not have known. I’ll show you what happens to a non-heat tolerant variety in 110 degree days.
❤️THANK YOU for your continued support on this channel!

Congratulations on the 1000 subscribers! Could the drip tape be clogged by that melon that completely died? Bummer.
Everything looks beautiful. I’m sorry about the losses.
Yeah, I'm watching my tomatoes slowly fry in the heat in Las Cruces, even the Arizona-bred ones. Second crop seedlings have mostly been planted, though!
Welcome back! Glad you had a nice vacation. Somewhere cooler would be niiiice. About the squashes, there is an epidemic of squash bugs here in town, I'm having to yank almost all of mine. I picked them for over a month, killed eggs, and it's like they are emerging overnight, in droves. Sigh. Anyway, I assume you've inspected them for that. I just ordered some of the yard-long bean seeds, and have black eyes and red black eyes started. Good luck! bc
My San Marzanos are doing OK, Brad's Atomic Grape, not so much. Sun Golds are growing, but tiny little ACID bombs.
