Its possible I may have grown too much winter squash... the long pinkish yellow ones are North Georgia Candy Roasters. They are in the 15+# range... the large dark green round ones a Tetsukabuto - a kabocha butternut cross... it said avg weight would be 3 - 5 #... I have quite a few nearing 10 pounds lol. There a few Black Futsu in the pile as well... I have already given away a couple of each and I have a large box of Candystick delicata as well. #Gardening

Does anyone know if I have to cure Black Futsu squash like I do my testokabuto? #gardening

From the large patch of milkweed on the side of the house - various local pollinators... The monarch that the caterpillar came from flitted through and I happened to see it a while ago. I was unable to find eggs but apparently they were there.

The low was 33 degrees last night. Hopefully the garden didnt have any freezing temps. While I am grateful for not having scorching temps like the rest of the country, I am hoping my cucumber plants arent too unhappy... As an aside it will be in the 90's by friday...
