I'm not a fan of cauliflower, but that looked nice. So your broccoli is doing well? I tried planting some recently and the little seedlings went away in all of our heat.Kalena Michelehttp://amirasblogberry.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872247640329823856.post-26067113630414061402009-06-20T17:41:25.000-07:002009-06-20T17:41:25.000-07:00Sinfonian - I grow my peas in the back yard which ...Sinfonian - I grow my peas in the back yard which is partly sunny and they go gangbusters. I think peas are a cool weather crop and don't like a lot of heat.<br><br>Now - how did you get your cauliflower so big? Mine are just starting to head but we've been eating broccoli for a week or more. Did you start your broccoli and cauliflower at the same time?Sustainable Eatshttp://www.sustainableeats.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872247640329823856.post-42848145347336352342009-06-19T00:28:34.000-07:002009-06-19T00:28:34.000-07:00what kind of peas are you growing?

I put out some Dwarf Gray Sugar peas this year and split them up between a location that gets sun after noon (west side of the garage) and another location that gets sun from around 10 am until around 4 pm (now that the sun has moved higher in the sky). It seems I really got a lot more on the garage side where it is about 5 - 6 hours of sunlight. I was out last night for an hour and picking 2 pounds, 8 ounces of peas - so we now have about six pounds of peas.<br><br>I picked our one cauliflower a few days ago as well - and it weighed in just under a pound! Yesterday I noticed that it does look like one more cauliflower is starting to grow larger - but I hope it matures before the plants are killed by the weather. The weather jumped from mid-70's to mid 90's overnight in our area.<br><br>For your bee problem - if they are coming from the attic, you may see about buying some of that spray foam stuff that will expand to fill the cracks around pipes or cracks.Brian S.http://www.bsntech.com/content/blogcategory/51/301/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872247640329823856.post-72393202370356153142009-06-19T00:48:40.000-07:002009-06-19T00:48:40.000-07:00Beautiful cauliflower!

My peas are about as far along as yours, but my sugar snap peas are all through bearing and the vines have been pulled out. Sugar snaps were in a shadier section of the garden.Annie's Grannyhttp://annieskitchengarden.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872247640329823856.post-86109866239287102332009-06-18T17:08:27.000-07:002009-06-18T17:08:27.000-07:00Wow, your cauliflower is lookin' mighty good!Wow, your cauliflower is lookin' mighty good!Just Jennhttp://gaminesgarden.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872247640329823856.post-89513208323053102252009-06-18T22:30:23.000-07:002009-06-18T22:30:23.000-07:00Cauliflower can be such a fussy plant to grow.
