Do you even squash bro? 🤤
Big bright bloom on a late season squash that refuses to climb its trellis and instead just wants to crawl across the cool dirt of the raised bed. Fruit development seems unlikely at this time, but it still adds a nice pop of natural color to the garden.

💚 Green Thumb Rules: When planting, make sure your plant pit is 2x to 3x the size of rootball, backfill hole with mix of existing soil and chosen amendments, slope backfilled soil away from trunk, and mulch (but not at base - give plant at least half a foot of breathing space).👍😝👍

Cabbage, we have a problem. 🐛 Its name be Mamestra brassicae, aka the Cabbage Moth. 🐛 Those cute lil white moths you see flying around? They lay fuzzy looking green eggs (you can see one in pic) that quickly become hungry hungry caterpillars. Somehow they found the one cabbage i left in ground since spring (it was a runt and just seemed so cute) , and decimated it! Oye. Was kinda sad to throw these cats into a soapy water grave, but gotta do it before they spread to other crops.

Finally laid dripline in the pollinator garden. Just 50ft worth for about 18ft of garden. Cost me 25 bucks and 1 hour of labor. Working well so far. This'll definitely save me from a couple hours of manual watering per week! But i'll be making sure my milkweed, salvia, and tickseed dont miss me 💚🤗💚!

Figs are almost ready! Which means the battle to harvest these before they get eaten by the rats, squirrels, bugs, and birds (and my mother-in-law 😉) begins! Any suggestions on how to keep these critters at bay? 🐀🐿🐜🦅
