I got squash, maters and peppers - May 25th, 2005 at 09:44 PM
Yehaww! I am so excited its getting time to pick the fruits and veggies of my labor.
The squash is doing great. We mulched around them with hay and interplanted calendulas in between the plants. Fish emulsion, chicken poop (from our hens) bone and blood meal and plenty of water was used to help them along. Yesterday our first squash was ready to pick and boy did it feel good!
The tomatoes we planted with borage, marigolds and basil. Fertilized with the same as we did the squash and man they are getting so big!! I can't wait to have a taste of them. Everything is looking so heatlhy so far and we are so proud. Thanks guys for all the help and advice so far and when summer starts to fade and fall crops are ready to plant Im sure I will asking 10 million questions again.
