Getting nervous!!! Weather stinks!!! I have Three Dills Atlantic Giant seeds that I have not planted yet. Soaking them as I type. The are getting planted. I have put too much work into this to lose the ones I put in the ground just beacause mother nature is a stubborn old goat!!!!

It's just the beginning BIG24NUT! Mother Nature is the one variable in which we have NO control over when it comes to growing these giants. She can take you out at any time during the season. Anyone here who has grown for a few years has experienced it. Do everything you can to protect your plants for the entire season, not just when they are young...and hope for the best!

GOOD LUCK!

I felt the same way you do now! But as for me mother nature threw me a curve ball by temps up to 110. Lost pretty much the first fruit but you just keep trying!! Relax and she will fix all!!!!!
