Hi Nesa!
It has been so quiet here. We've gotten
some late rain and its still a bit chilly (not that it really ever warms up
like the inland). Is everything in the garden holding up to the
heat? I've got my three Rainbow Incas (corn) in a large container
on the south side of the house so they can keep warm and have been feeding
them fish emulsion. They have really been really thirsty compared to the
other containers. The garden boxes in the back are starting to look like
something is in there ;) The peas, radish, carrots have all popped
up. I'm even trying scarlet runner beans (again) and these are looking
well. I got excited/in a hurry and forgot to put down plastic mulch when
I planted pumpkins. They are up now but I will try to lay strips down
after the wind dies down (hopefully soon!!)

Subject: Stunted corn
Hello, how are you guys and gals? I guess you
must have your gardens up and growing. here in Singapore its been rather hot
and dry and I am having a problem with my corn- Country Gentleman. Most of
my plants are stunted- flowering at 2 ft. Is it likely that they will fruit?
I planted them on ground fed with compost but it doesnt seem to have
helped.
