Sudden Update!

The brevious entry written only minutes ago, is already out of date.. :) After posting it I ventured out into the garden which I had not looked upon since yesterday only to discover more growth on the cukes, and along with the flower pods, one female flower on the squash!

I had forgotten to mention adding BioBoost, a product from Gardens Alive! which is supposed to benefit the soil, and through it the plants. I had added this to the tomatoes, and to the cucumbers as they were struggling so, and though I will be the first to admit that perhaps other factors came into play, it seems not unlikely that this product at least assisted in the dramatic increase in growth of the cucumber plants.

I have added a bit more to the cukes, but also the other squashes as it recommends a treatment at planting, but also at the time of flowering and setting fruit. Here's to hoping for the continued progress from all of these plants!
