The melons are getting big!
Here's two beautiful baby cukes!
And the piece de resistance - I harvested my first radish tonight! I had it on a salad for dinner. Delicious!

Shannon is a Novice Gardener in Southern Maryland
Shannon's Tasteful Garden
Some of Shannon's fondest childhood memories include preparing tomatoes for "the deep freeze", shelling peas and snapping beans from her grandparents' large garden, and picking blackberries to be made into cobbler that very afternoon. Last summer the satisfaction of harvesting delicious cantaloupe every other day from her own back yard hooked her on maintaining a food garden of her own. This year she hopes to step up production and force herself to learn more about freezing, canning and dehydrating!

That split in your Zucchini may be a vine borer entry point. If your plant becomes really wilted, you may not be able to save it. (We lost 2 plants already and are trying to save the rest.
ReplyDeleteIt looks fine in the photo so they may have gotten in and then died or got eaten by something else. (Yeah!) You can cover up the vine with dirt to protect it.
Here is a good site which talks about squash vine borers and prevention etc. http://www.ca.uky.edu/entomology/entfacts/ef314.asp
