Jimmy and Beanie have been watching the garden very carefully. They love their squash and they want to be sure that they will get their fair share. I am really trying to meet their demands and I have replanted at least four Grow Boxes with squash.
I agree with them on the quantity and I have plans to make next summer's crop better than this year's crop. I intend to order injectors that have a nematode sponge in it. Add water and then the mixture is injected into the stem of squash family plants because they are hollow. The nematodes are supposed to be a natural deterrent to squash bugs.
Tonight I fooled them with squash I bought in Charleston over the weekend. They anxiously awaited the cooking and then finally-the prize. Squash in a bowl for each one of them.
I had two dogs and two humans in heaven. Wait until we eat the cache of squash I have in the refrigerator.
It will be heaven. Or at least on earth.
