The tomatoes are still ripening and looking healthy but will probably be on their way out as itâs getting colder.
rip pumpkins out
crying Do I have to?
Iâve got around 6 of these little guys. Two I pollinated today and four are starting to plump.
I do have some onions I was going to take to the pantry but canât make it down. I could find space in the soil.

Um, I know it hurts, but the pumpkins are unlikely to ripen. Ditto tomatoes. Itâs not the temperature, its the day length. The equinox is past and the days are getting shorter so plant puts one last effort into fruiting then keels over. Maybe leave them another week just to see. They do look nice & healthy though.

Youâre right of course. I planted when I should have been harvesting. I just donât know if I can bring myself to do it
