Same here as had same weather. Wierd! It killed the lettuce before it even
sprouted well, killed the peas (wish I had picked them all as some were
ready) and left me with a few tomatoes, some snap beans, and a lonely squash
plant with no flowers or squash in evidence.
Hehe didnt kill 'the mint plant from hell that will not die' however.
Planted that sucker 2 winters ago and it still lives again every year! Dang
thing is almost as big as a lilac this year.
