Thread: In The Garden 2020

Made a "log cabin" from the logs and waiting for the mushrooms to sprout. Looking at the ends of the logs you can see the white mycellium growing in the sap wood.

I have been waiting for a while but it is a wait and see when it happens

Woke up this morning and found this beauty.

For several years I've planted two Roma tomato plants in this container but this year I decided to play a bit.

I'd saved the seeds from a store bought Butternut Squash last year and planted several in an old egg carton and most all sprouted so I planted two in the container.

One seemed to be doing better than the other so I removed the weakling. I have no idea of how this set up will work as I've never grown any squash other than zucchini.

Anyway, it seems to be doing well.



Only time will tell

Did some gardening today, things are stating to get cookin.

I have been negligently absent from this thread, but how about my daily harvest to catch up



We are eating so good

Other than just putting a sprinkler out to water the lawn and at the same time my experimental Butternut Squash plant I haven't paid much attention to the squash for a few day. The last time was when I moved some of the vines so that the tendrils could start grabbing hold of the support.

But after I'd hung some laundry out today I took a peek and I found two blossoms.





In the lower right hand of the bottom picture is the fuzzy image of the first blossom.

I believe I can see other pods that should produce more blossoms but I'll have to wait and see.

I am hoping for some squash to harvest and use this fall but if nothing else, it's been fun.
