We have things growing we shouldn’t be able to grow and they produce. A lot. We’ve seen massive changes in weather over the past decade. Now we grow figs, Almonds, peaches and cherries. In Cape Breton. Traditionally we were a root veggie kinda place when it came to growing food.
We’ve increased by almost two full growing zones in that time. When we moved back we built a greenhouse to extend our seasons. Mid summer it’s too hot now and we need to cool it. Many winters we could grow our winter crops outdoors now.

Things I grew a couple years ago I can’t grow now. There’s no spring - straight to 25, 30, and this week 45°
I think I might try planting in august for some things.
Took forever for some things to even come up. So long I forgot I planted them.
Potatoes died, parsnips never came up at all. Tomatoes started very slow.
It’s impossible to grow cilantro now. Or lettuce. But basil and parsley love the heat and sun. and green onion are ok with heat but not sun.
Carrots are doing well
Cucumbers, beans and peas are all vining crazy good.
And my jalapeño plants are thriving.
It is chaos.
We grow more ticks now!
