I hear that. I am going to stick mine under our big maple tree. They will get good strong morning sun but only for an hour or so and then be in the shade for the rest of the day.
Corn was already tosslin' and okra was gettin' fried at this time last season. May was crazy; the first half record cold and the last half set records for heat. June is hot and dry so far so the drip irrigation gets a workout. The drip tape is performing much, much better than the soaker hose used last season, but it sucks to get plants started earlier and set out so late. I did manage to pick over a pound of pods this AM though.
I'll try and snap a few close up shots of a few plants this evening.
