@Branching Out , I have used Cornell University information on plant diseases and found that it is helpful. However, they say that their VegMD program has "retired." They continue to have help for commercial growers here LINK. The information from Missouri is certainly comprehensive in just a...
Unusual Day.
Not unusual for a high temperature in mid-September but unusual that it is the first afternoon since May 23rd that the thermometer hasn't hit 70°f (21°C) !
