I can't get over how your plants, vegetables and flowers always look so healthy. This has been a bad year for beans, around here anyways. I mean, beans has always been something I can count on doing good in the garden. I've cooked two pots of beans and given away enough for a pot, and that's it. The vines are dying. Dilly beans sound good!

Our weather is hot, hot and hotter :) I water all day long and move the sprinklers around the yard many times a day. We are blessed with a very good well, or I wouldn't be able to do that. I have been having a problem with earwigs . . . I hate those little devils. I do have things in the garden that are not doing that well. I planted five watermelon vines and I have one watermelon growing:) I have a huge pumpkin vine that is just gorgeous and growing so fast that you can almost watch it grow, but so far no pumpkins, LOL. Don't be envious, I get up early and start watering and don't stop until bedtime, then I'm hoeing, weeding and deadheading in between that. It's a lot of work and it does tie you down. Have you googled your worms and looked for any organic remedies to get rid of them. I know that I use bananas on my roses or anything that I think has aphids. Sometimes it's as easy as hot pepper or little bowls of beer set out. I do hope you find the answer. Better yet call your courthouse and speak to the master gardener. Every county has one and their job is to help you with your gardening questions. Let me know how it goes. I am always looking for health solutions . . . I do not want a garden sprayed with chemicals. I want to eat this stuff, right?<br />I hope there is something here that helps you. Keep smiling sweet sister, summer will pass and we can start complaining about how cold it is, LOL. <br />Here's to better seasons,<br />Connie :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136180253380173794.post-74485105740159978012018-07-18T16:28:20.547-07:002018-07-18T16:28:20.547-07:00All I can say is I'm VERY envious! Your garden...All I can say is I'm VERY envious! Your garden and veggies and flowers are all so beautiful and lush! Have you had rain there in the last few weeks? We are so so DRY here and no matter how much watering I do, it doesn't seem enough. It just soaks down through the soil and leaves everything bone dry within an hour! Plus the bugs are back again, chomping away at my leaves on everything.. and some sort of worms or cacoons that must hatch out into worms that eat everything. I'm very discouraged and about ready to give up on planting ANYTHING. they've even eaten my beautiful Coleus that has grown to 2 feet and now the leaves are all getting chewed up. I just can't afford to keep spraying everything as it just washed off when I water (although I try to water only at the bottom but hubby waters the entire thing). Sigh. You are so lucky and fortunate to not have bugs eating everything up. Your canning looks beautiful and those beans look so good. Did you grow your own dill? It's so expensive to buy the dried dill. Do I sound envious???? I am! Take care and enjoy this HOT weather.. has been over 100 here the last 3 days... ugh..
