They look strong for now and are beginning to put out female flowers which I hand pollinate. I just see one plant in particular is slammed and they’ve spread onto others now too.
I just want pumpkins :’(

The time I grew cabbages, they took a heap of space and water and weren’t that big. Then I saw them for $3ea at the grocers. I’ve never grown cabbages since.

I bought zucchinis from a fruit shop and I know for certain they were grown in someone’s backyard.

My cabbages tend to split. Never bother with onions or plain carrots, only the colourful ones. The effort to cost ratio isn’t worth it. Grow what you like that’s harder to get hold of.
