NO zucchini. Oh well. Last year the summer squash came in FAR earlier than the tomatoes so getting them in late will probably be a good thing.
Once I get these in, I'll see how much room (and energy) I have left and then maybe pick up a few indulgence type tomatoes.
Hopefully tonight is the last night in the 30's. I'm ready to start planting.

(14,600 posts)Might want to thin the seedlings out.
Easier than having a daily giveaway yard sale in a little while.
Look up squash flower recipe.
Just make sure the bees are out of the flower when you pick one.

(16,116 posts)I have a ton of squash - zucchini and otherwise - that are waiting for me to transplant them out of their winter sowing jugs. Some of them I just planted in the jugs last week. They're up and strong and ready to go.
A packet of seeds would yield more than enough....
I've been giving my extras away on the local Buy Nothing group.

(20,987 posts)I found the same thing Tuesday when I went to pick up some starts, no zukes.
But they had some other summer squash varieties that I'm really eager to try... calabacitas, here we come!
anticipatorially,

As a matter of fact, now we plan on growing extras of some things just for the purpose of donating it to the food bank. They are very grateful for homegrown produce.
