A growing vegetable garden

Long days and warmer weather (highs between 60°F and 72°F, and up to 75° one day) mean the vegetables in my beds and in the ground are growing rapidly.

It's interesting to see the scarlet runner beans emerging as the soil warms up;  the spinach looks great;  the poor basil plant that I put out early, hmm, it's looking wan.

But kale and lettuce from transplants look great.  The broccoli needs more sun, I think, but looks fine, and the emerging beets, etc. also look good. 

Such a different climate than where I've grown vegetables in the past!
