so we decided we needed some summer squash, something i've always done and for some reason just didn't get it in yet this year. so found some yellow summer zucchini seeds tonight.... (http://www.burpee.com/organic-gardening/organic-squash/squash-summer-early-prolific-straightneck).

og seeds & homemade sprout protectors |
seems crazy, but i don't really have much room left. i was going to do something around the tree, but i'm a little worried it won't get enough sun for these, so decided to extend the herb bed. double or nothin'.
started with this....
|
won't be grass for long, note where the tomatoes are... --> |
half way....
|
beautiful, rich brown dirt!! had beds here 3-4 yrs ago,
and let it grow over last year...so this stuff is just awesome! |
i started this project just before dusk, so the mosquitoes started to get bad! my mom gave us this bug spray a few weeks ago, "Skeeter Beater" by a local company Dirt Tribe
it really works and smells sooo good! thanks mom :)
|
this is their label. love it. |
i got the bed done just before dark. double or nothin'.
|
ready for seeds! |
i planted 5 small mounds in, 2-3 seeds. this type of yellow squash is only a 50 day strain, so should
have grilled zucchini for my birthday :)
|
with love & light, let them grow... |
on the way in...noticed something red and look what caught my eye!!
|
hello, hello! |
|
picked the first one for the season & split it with E.
yummy treat after the hard work :)
|
so that wraps up today. here's a few from earlier today...everything is just rockin'!
