Btw, here are my sad looking pepper sprouts that aren't responding so well to the summer fog.

The red lavas from Horrux are the tiny ones in the middle back, with the tall plastic tag. I still have hope for them, but the sun will begin dropping behind the giant redwood tree in another month or so.

They still look like they're trying. Have you considered placing them under UV for an hour each day during foggy times?

I've done that, and also moved them to catch afternoon sun. It's just too much of a pain in the butt.

Maybe I'll bring them in and set up some lights if they don't produce by the time the sun drops behind the huge redwood.

Past few days the fog hasn't burned off, except for a bit in the late afternoon. It's great, unless you're trying to grow hot weather plants...

Looking at windy.com, I see large areas of the country are between 30 to 40 degrees hotter. Man, that's like living in one of the ovens at Auschwitz. Okay, maybe several exaggerations in that, but still too hot for human habitability. :)
