Wife picked the first straight neck summer squash yesterday. She was happy happy happy. I just went out to the garden and picked 2 straight neck summer squash and handed them to my wife. She said where did those come from? I pointed to the garden. She said how? I just checked the garden yesterday. I said well you might just want to check everyday now.Trellis up for remaining squash plants. Also trying something new with summer squash: trying to train them up a 5' grading stake. First 2 plants positioned today, I have 2 more stakes that I can use, as well, and if it seems to work w/o too much work, I'll cut some more saplings for the rest of the plants. My back is singing the blues.
Poor lady has no idea what she's in for... I planted a 50' row each of straight neck summer squash, zucchini & butternut squash. All the squash plants are flowing profusely. I already have pity on my wife and all my neighbors too
