buckbull, you're such a show off. Really that is good looking veggies. Good going. The turtle pic was kind of a shock.
My mini personal watermelon are growing along with the cantaloupe. Finally getting Armenian cucumbers. My gherkins are doing their usual going crazy and producing.
Just happy when neighbors stop by that don't have gardens they go home happy.

Tomatoes are the only thing that I have that are really doing well. Cantelope and watermelon have been ok. Had some plants get to maturity and die without producing fruit. Zucchini is about dead and I only picked 4, squash bugs nailed it this year even though I sprayed. I have 12 pepper plants and have picked a single banana pepper.

Sunny days bring the fruits!

buckbull, use diatomaceous earth on your plants. It's safe for kids and animals. I bought a sprayer for aphids and a 4lb bag off of Amazon. Harris-diatomaceous earth food grade and a sprayer.
It'll help with all the squash bugs.

Got a plentiful harvest of weeds from the garden this morning. A good weeding was overdue.
Also managed to get some peppers, tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini, green beans and still getting blackberries.
Wife made eggplant parm for lunch and I've got some ham in the pot for ham and green beans for dinner.
