Oklahoma Summer Gardening

 Gardening in Central Oklahoma has been completely different from gardening in Oregon, where I was raised.  Everything seemed to grow all season long with ZERO die off!  NOT Oklahoma! Two days of 100 degrees and say good bye to your tomatoes and anything else that might be a little weak from bug munches.    Today the kids and I pulled out our tomato plants that have browned and stopped growing and replaced them with a fall crop of green beans.  The green beans will add nitrogen back into the soil that the tomatoes have depleted. ......... or so I'm told.

Until Next time,

Amy
