We got over 2" of needed rain last evening. The ground had not gotten too dry and no signs of ant splits. Tonight I gave the cucumber beetles a one - two punch of insecticides. Those stubborn buggers just won't die. I have a new contender on the 1444 plant, on a vine that grew out into the drainage ditch. We will deal with loading it if it manages to survive. The 962.5 is still going strong with no stump and no vine past the fruit. It is time to start some feedings to keep them from slowing down. Just 8 weeks until our first weigh-off.
