Frustrated vegetable gardeners may want to select seeds and plants w ith an eye toward varieties that will stand up in the dry, hot weather ahead, Owings said, since they will be in the garden beyond the normal harvest date due to a late start. He recommends Wando peas for those still waiting to sow peas.
But Owings had a word of comfort for those who have yet to plant anything in their soggy gardens. “If you’d put in your cabbage plants already, they’d just be suffering from wind and cold and not doing much growing,” he said.
All in all, Owings said that the overall toll of the weather on orchards, crops and gardens depends much more on what happens in the next few weeks than on the weather of mid-April.
