I got some broccoli transplanted outside on Tuesday because it was supposed to start raining the next day and for 4-5 days. (We don't normally get rain like this in Wyoming). The broccoli looks very happy and not as sad as it usually does when I transplant it.

If you notice a bunch of green against the edge of the deck, that is mostly carrots. Two Falls ago, I missed pulling all of my carrots, so some went to seed last year. At the end of the season, I just crushed the seed heads and sprinkled the seeds over the bed, hoping they would sprout this year. It looks like our crazy winds, blew all/most of the seeds against the deck, so there is a thick line of carrots growing against the edge of the deck. After the rains stop, I'll need to thin them. I don't know how growing against the cement deck will effect the carrot roots.

I left a few dandelions in the bed until I have time to get other stuff planted to fill the space.

Looking good! The rain this month has been quite unusual, sure keeps things looking green.

Yes. This week we are supposed to get around 20% of our normal annual rainfall. Last month we had the largest snow on record. This year is definitely on track to get way above normal moisture. Hopefully I can have the best garden production ever to go with it.

I was hoping to get a few more things in the ground before this rain came, but ran out of time. The past few weeks have been crazy busy. My summer is already filling up, so it will be tricky to fit in all of the work I want to do in my garden this year. I'm praying I can find the time to fit it all in.

I know the feeling, good luck to you!
