Thanks @TopShelfTrees1 and @FieldEffect ! Looks like we got lucky and only minimal damage. Whew!!! Seems like a hail storm is becoming common place in june around here. Talked to some friends that are just 20 minutes away and they got hit with smaller hail, but way more and it just decimated everything…total loss!!!

Glad you got away without much damage. Sounds like the same thing that happened here, just farther away they got a lot of smaller hail and lots of destruction.

Here is my friends choi and kale beds that got annihilated
Make sure to support your local farmer. This farmer just lost thousands and no crop insurance like the commodity guys!

Looking good over there! Is that all squash in the one pic or are the plants in the front rows different, maybe beans, can’t quite tell? Also, do you grow both summer and winter squash or what do you have in regards to that?

Nice! Looks so badass @Radicle_Reefer well done:clap:t2: may your harvest be more bountiful than ever before. I’m seeing signs of this being an epic year! My clematis’ , hostas, etc. are way way bigger than ever before (100% au natural) and my buddy’s plants that have been in for like 3 weeks are doing phenomenal already it’s insane tbh in 3 weeks they went from 1-1.5ft and maybe 2 ft wide too 4 ft easy, and width is ever expanding as well and he hasn’t even given anything but rainwater so far. (And of course I have NONE outside 
) sounds about right……
Can’t wait to see these bad boys in 30 days or so never mind in late September

Thanks! This stretch of june is always phenomenal vegetative growth up until the summer solstice. I’m still trying to get everything in the ground before then. Been a crazy week with this heat wave. I’m frying but the plants are loving it!

Thanks @Tejas !
I have a few more holes to fill. Just waiting on some plants to express gender before I make the last selections. Also testing my indoor run of ‘88G13xHP before I select which clones are worth it.

Getting some much needed rain! So it is inside to tend to the males. Got a good amount of freezeland pollen
Freezeland #2
He had a really a really funky, gassy, trashy, Bo odor. Looked like a friesland in structure and is the first male to blow pollen for the year!

Is that your early flowering Freezeland you posted earlier outdoors?

Freezeland males starting to show. There is a trifoliate mutant that i am thinking about culling not pictured. Loving the looks of the later flowering short squat one, but the taller early flower friesland pheno smells dank and funky!!
The shorter pictured freezeland is really stacking up and about to release pollen as well

Under tornado watch damn storm was nasty. I had to do emergency trellising. Out there in the middle of the storm pounding t-posts to stand the plants back up. Hard to see them laying down, but they are all back upright now! I’m just soaked to the bone!!!
