Weeds and wet weather

Tari and I tried weeding the garden some this evening as they are calling for rain tomorrow.

This past week was wet and hot and humid which is good for the vegetable's but the weeds like it better. I was almost weed free until the rains hit and they multiplied like rabbits. I did have to dust my cabbage for the first time this evening as I was starting to get a little insect damage. I caught a white fly under the row cover on one end and that is where i have the most damage. I did thin some of the fruit off the apple and peach trees. I found one Japanese beetle on some flowers here at home but they have not appeared on any fruit yet. I am off tomorrow for Kenny Ray's birthday, so not much extra work will be done tomorrow just feed the chickens and we are going down to cabin to mow grass and the rest of the day will be spent either at the pond or on the river bank.
