Well, hot weather is here and the favas have completely "croaked". Hardly any rain and severe heat. They are goiing to be dug under and the ground prepared for fall crops now. I have just planted two rows of favas in foot tall corn rows (in between spaces where the corn didn't come up) to see how they might do. Will plant like this again in a week or so to see if the corn will shade them alittle from the hot summer sun and help catch rain for them whenever we get some. I am hopeful. Did get enough tincture made for the year so if it is a failed experiment..its ok. I also have another plan up my sleeves for an other trial with the beans. Thank you all for sending prayers and encouraging thoughts my way. Anyone want to come help???? Blessings
