Better late then never. I was too late this year starting gardening into April because of a tour of Spain in which i visited some farms and exchanged seeds and tried to warm Spanish folks to the Adaptation Gardening idea. It was fun, but made me late,late,late and hurried, but things seem to turn out better than ever thanks to GTS and the European seed train and exchanges. Oh yeah, the weather was cold till very late, with very cold nights especially, but frequent rains. Also started a Telegram channel and we have some new people on board therefore. Busy,busy.
Nuff talk, pix.
Parsnips i make them bare at the bottom. Grex of leeks, grex of cucumbers.
Wild leeks tasting of garlic flowering and attracting tons of insects, also makes bulbils.
Echinacea grex and others
Inula flowering, it’s seeds are spreading and taking hold here and there.
Oats, some grex of wilder varieties.
Beans climbing into stuff is a thing for me this year, like here into parsnip. It just saves time making all these racks.
Grex of melons, furtest north and so on, thanks @JesseI , @stephane_rave , @Richard and others
Climbing beans into Corn
Climbing bean into prune tree
Sorgho grex
you don’t burn 100 km further north?
last night I did a nocturne at Garden 27°c at midnight !
everything looks super green, it’s great to see the beans set out to conquer space
Hi Stephane! Oh definitely hot, unseasonally hot even, since beginning of June or so! But we were very lucky with rains just when needed. Like every 9 days a big big shower, some cm’s of rain here, some cm of rain there. Except for upstarts i didn’t have to go out and water to save plants..
Most days i’ve been getting up early, like 5, just to get that morning coolness and work when the sun doesn’t sting. Then hide in the daytime during +30 C days.
It does make up for my plants not wanting to really get going with cold nights far into May. A night close to st Glace we’ve had frost, but still, a very good year for fruit and berries!
Tayberries.

Looking more like CostaRica than France halfway June. Now field are yellow.
