Â* That truly sucks , Sheldon . Mine went in right on time , about a
week after last frost here . The last thing planted was okra , they're
now about 6-8" tall and growing fast . We haven't been getting much rain
so I'm getting things lined up to begin watering in the mornings while
it's not too hot . I figure that is the reason my cucumbers seem to have
stalled - with a couple of dozen or more small fruits on the vines .
