    Yes. That cilantro has tiny flowers if you let it grow. Great for specific pollinators that need those small flowers. a host plant for ladybugs too. Might see their larva crawling all over it.
    Nature is something.
    Sorry about your plants Rob. F..k it all sometimes!  ❤️

    Yeah I have strawberry and tomato plants that are hardy but I spent months preparing from seed lots of stuff that's just gone. It's a bit soul destroying 
    You should still be able to plant and get ;late bloomers.

    True^^I also go for a fall crop. Some years are just bad if the weather doesn't cooperate. All about that. Getting lucky this year. Going to be hot soon so tomatoes/cucs should take off. Should finish my pea harvest this week.

    My beet picture is kinda fake news. All greens mainly. Cooked the greens and ahh hmmm. Not my thing. Maybe make and omelet with some. Or compost.
    Just cut some of my peas back so the cucumbers can grow.  A couple of cherry tomatoes are ready and plants look good. Peppers look meh. I never. Have much luck with them. Maybe just need to wait and will take off. Always love getting my hands dirty anyway.

    Just planted yellow stringbean seeds and some pole beans.
    Maybe harvest the rest of my beets and think of something else to plant there.
