I’m not sure what happened to the showers and/or thunderstorm that were predicted this afternoon. It’s blazing hot out there (in direct sun) with blue skies in all directions. I just put some shade cloth over my outdoor seedling area - there is a difference between “hardening off” and murder. I’ve also added some shade over the newly transplanted seedlings in the garden which are looking a bit traumatised. Hopefully we get some cloud cover soon or I might have to put some cover over the zucchinis too, they are already looking quite wilted. They will have more shade over summer once the beans grow, but at the moment are in full sun and this is a bit much for them.
