9. I think My Stuff Survived the Heatwave as well

We actually got several monster sized zucchini over the last 10 days (most of them are about the size and thickness of an adult arm from elbow to wrist) and the first eggplant I've ever grown. Some of the full sized tomatoes have developed Blossom End Rot, but the dwarf varieties (mostly ones sent by you, thanks again) seem to be thriving even with the heat.

Italian Pole Beans are beginning to really produce and hot/bell peppers are almost ready. Between two cherry punch plants, I'm getting a pint of tomatoes a day, at least. Picked my first Black Pearl on Sunday and the full sized guys look like they're just about to start changing color.
