At least you had a great season of growing. My garden is still going but I'm only going to get spaghetti squash and pumpkins. It's not a good year for me but I'm so happy to hear that you had a great garden this year
Thank you. It's not easy but we always make it work. Life is hard and marriage can be very complicated but, if you agree, even to disagree, you figure out what it takes to make it work.
Today I found 8 to 10 more pumpkins to pick but I still have pumpkins to get processed and I need to get the pomegranates processed into jelly and syrup.
I also found one that I tried to move and found it was already off the vine so I brought it in even though it's still not ripe because it's really green.
I went out to the garden today. I found MORE PUMPKINS. I have 3 that are ready to pick because they are orange. The big one is still green but I think I have about 15 more out there. I just can't see them.
They will definitely be able to access it from all sides. I'm thinking that if I bury it about 4 inches in the ground they will have better access to it.
I'm thinking about using a big tote to put in the run for a composting system. I can drill numerous small holes in it for aeration and since I did watch Mohawk gobble down a mouse I think it might work. If anyone has any ideas or advice I would greatly appreciate it. I have a roll of hardware...
I'm hoping that my pumpkins ripen before it gets too cold. It's already getting cold at night so hopefully they will. I have a large pumpkin out there and it's still completely green.
