While I don’t know yet if my spaghetti squash plants will actually produce spaghetti squash this year, they sure are growing! I had quite a few problems with spaghetti squash last year and the beginning of this year, but things seem to be turning around! They are beginning to flower, and I’m going to keep a close eye on them, hand pollinating, if necessary. Take a look!
Those are two different spaghetti squash plants planted near my orange tree. Ideally, they would have been planted in a dedicated bed, but I live in southern California which means TINY yards. I do what I can…
My summer squash plant is quite prolific, with several “fruits” on the vines. Some are getting quite large and will be ready to harvest in a couple day’s time.
See the little yellow squashes? I read that they can grow up to an inch a day. If that’s the case, I’ll have some ready to pick by week’s end!
I am really looking forward to these peppers ripening!
Yes, it’s planted next to my electric meter, but what can I say? I have a small yard. I use what space I have in any way I can.
I picked one today along with one yellow cherry tomato and a few radishes.
Not a huge harvest, but it is a delicious one!
Speaking of radishes, I should have a few more ready later this week.
And, yes, those are around my water shut off valve. Again, small yards. There’s also a garlic plant tucked in there.
