| can you spot the beginnings of a zucchini flower? |
 | |
| what about a tiny little bean bud? |
And let's not forget about the corn. Ever hear the saying "knee high by the fourth of July"? Well it looks like our corn is right on track.
One thing that surprised me about the garden was the lack of a difference between the two side. I couldn't believe there appeared to be no difference considering we went almost 2 weeks without rain.

The weeds also seem to be doing well in this hot weather and once again the weeks gardeners will have their work cut out for them. Lots of crabgrass and lambs quarters are all around the garden. I think we may be putting down some mulch to help with the weed control.
This past weeks gardeners also saw some bunny evidence left behind. Can anyone guess what that could be? Lets hope they were just peeking in and don't have any plans to taste our beautiful garden.
One last thing to report is the presence of another unwanted guest. Japanese Beetles.
