We did Zucchini last year, over did it, gave a lot away, didn't make the cut this year. Squash, - crap, how did we miss that ? There's still time, we have an empty corner yet. Watermelon and Pumpkins were last year as well, they took a lot of room. Still going to do Pumpkins at this point , but in a different location on the property. Thanks for the Squash reminder!

 

A Zucchini pot ehh...huh, that's an idea.

 

People have had the same problem N/A, Whitey.

Sounds like you'll have a nice crop, Brew. That's one thing we miss about Ohio. Back there, toss a seed on the ground, spit on it, and it will grow. Not so much here at about 9,000'.

 

I've read somewhere you have a shorter growing season at higher elevations, or in the mountains...drastic temp changes when the sun goes down is part of that I expect. I'm sure there's other reasons.

I guess we have Squash going in, I got one of those duhh looks when I inquired. Hell, I didn't read everything,- I just loaded the stuff

 

The general rule here is Mothers Day until mid September. Mothers Day was early this year though, it seems like.

LOL @ the squash comment.

 

Yeah, daytime temps are nice, but mid-thirties to low forties isn't conducive to growing much.



On another subject, I saw this yesterday. Just how many bodies are in that trunk, anyway???

 

Lol... did those have rear air bags?
These two are sleeping together again...

 

LOL right, that's the way it is. Yep, I was just the gofer scratching up the topsoil, lumping stuff around so she could heel it in....and possibly gaining a few points in the process..... a mothers days exclusive for sure lol. Nah, it's not nearly that bad lol.

 

A freak freeze is danger close as well.

+1 on the bodies question lol.

 

Not too freaky, Brew. We've had snow in June. Not a ton, and it obviously doesn't stick around, but it can happen.
