KW-28 Always learning in the Garden

Especially when climates change

This week, I have been mostly thinking about Cucurbitaceae. It was clear from last week’s newsletter that they were troubling me. This week, I have all but admitted defeat.

I posted this to Instagram with the caption “What’s wrong with this pitcure”. Mostly, I got the right answer for the wrong reasons. It would appear that people have been reading blog posts again! This is not the place for that discussion, but…

From top right, clockwise, we have

• Plot 1: Potatoes

• Plot 2: Roots

• Plot 3: Salsa

• Plot 4: Greens

• Plot 5: Peas and Beans

• Plot 6: Pumpkin family

Potatoes, Beans and Roots are clearly all doing great. Salsa and Greens are actually also doing great, but it’s hard to see because these plots are flipping massive and the photo is taken from quite a long way away, and quite high up.
