So, today (yes, I am actually posting ON the date this happened) I decided to trade my very cool, retro oscillating sprinkler for soaker hoses. With the oscillator, the water hits the side of the garage, and causes a huge puddle. I don't want to lose my last cucumber plant, so I wove the soaker hoses around the plants. the water has to stay on longer, but it seems to work much better. Next year, I will start out with soaker hoses...what a chore trying to get those things around some of these huge plants!
While I was wrestling the zucchini plant to put down the hose, I found this!
It's a baby zucchini! The photo shows it just about actual size. Isn't it cute? It is.
