I'll admit, I got a bit of a later start with getting my garden going this year, so watching people picking produce like crazy already while my garden hasn't been producing much of anything, has been frustrating to say the least. Really all it takes is some patience! My strawberries produced a bit in late May, but then stopped in the middle of last month. Come to find out they only fruit one time a year, but at least I have the foundation for some good berries next year.
I have also been dealing with bugs, hornworms, and a fungus on my tomato plants due to the massive amounts of rain we have had. So it's a constant battle between man and nature just to have some fresh food to eat that isn't purchased at a store and pumped full of GMO garbage.
I was out checking some things in the garden when I saw some yellow popping out in my yellow zucchini plants. So I went to check it out and see how things were starting to develop. Low and behold, all I had to do was move a couple of big leaves and BOOM!
I'm telling you what, if my zucchini was that big, I would be in a whole other profession, LOL!!! That's a big boy! I dug around a bit more and found another and then a couple of more that needed to keep growing. So I picked the 2 that were the biggest and called it a day!
After being a bit frustrated, this was certainly a huge win for my motivation in the garden. So all it's going to take is just some learning experiences, and some patience and I will be rewarded with some bountiful harvest! I also have a few little cantaloupes starting to bloom too which is encouraging as well! But I'll give them their own post!
Until next time...
Keep being ungovernable, grow fresh food, and just enjoy your life!
