Just about a month ago here in SW Missouri, in early June, I
planted the yellow squash, zucchini, watermelon and pumpkins. I like having pumpkins in October instead of
August…. You also miss the first squash bug hatching by waiting until June to
plant the vines. The peppers and
tomatoes were out for nearly a month or more before everything else and now some
are about ready to pick. Anyway, there
are blooms starting on the watermelon and squash already! Look out for that missed zucchini! There is
more weeding to do but I am pretty proud of this garden. The okra and green beans were started just
about 2 weeks ago. We had rain both
yesterday morning and this morning-in July no less! Usually we see very little rain from the end
of May until August or later. As you can see I need to do some more
weeding…….There will be some good eating out of this. It is all done with as little insecticide and such to keep it as natural as possible.
