Nope, not a premature baby, but my harvest report so far this month. With the chard for tonight's beans'n'greens, we've brought in a pound a day, on average, so far this month! I must say that the poona khira next to the borage, which gets both sunlight and pollination, is producing prolifically. Tomatoes, too, though they are slow to ripen. The green beans are blooming again with the <95 degree weather, and will hopefully produce. I put a plate under what is obviously a melon, not an acorn squash, earlier today. Delightful! I probably won't get ANY squash this year due to the borers, but Husband doesn't like it much, anyway, except for the winter variety, roasted and buttered with maple syrup. Neighbor across the street says the squirrels are eating all her tomatoes. They are not eating mine, either due to the small gauge wire at the bottom of the cages, or the claustrophobia a small animal might feel going into one, or because of the cats. I hope Spot's death does not bring back the rodent hordes. We shall see.
