This has been a weird year weather-wise around Charleston, SC . It's also been a weird year for growing vegetables. As in "Total Crop Failure". Non-selective; just "total". And it's not just me... all of my vegetable growing friends experienced the same thing...total failure of this year's crop. Normally at this time of year I'm hauling hundreds of pounds of Squash, Tomatoes, Beans, Canteloupe, etc., to various food kitchens around here, thankful to make use of the excess. I've gotten a few green/wax beans this year, but they were "mealy". Harvested 6 ears of corn tonight, and while puny (6"---they're normally 12" by now), they were delicious. But other than that, I'm declaring "total crop failure"! Never had that happen before in my lifetime, growing in many areas of the country. So my question is, "is this failure limited to the immediate Charleston area, or does it extend beyond the Charleston area?". Need your input to figure this out!
