Three woodchucks in two days. All three have had skin lesions, even the youngsters. I attribute the wet, wet weather.

| Potatoes are about 2/3 canopied over. Sunlight that falls on soil does not make food. |

| Corn has a long way to go. All three crops have the same row-to-row spacing, 42 inches. That is set by my rototiller. This corn will explode if we get some hot weather. |

| Cabbage went in today. They look pretty pathetic. This is a savoy variety named Deadon and it seems to be fairly caterpillar free. I attribute it to the leaves being purple. The green worms glow like neon signs to passing birds: Food - Food - Food |
At least you can plant. Lot of places cannot get crops in the ground. This 'may' be a bad year for corn, wheat, and rice.
