I need to trim them, and I guess dry them. <br /><br />I posted an update on mine this evening. Please add my post to your sidebar if it's not too late. Thanks for doing this. I'll have to check out the other ones.<br /><br />http://Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-70560265432026023562009-07-20T21:08:54.131-05:002009-07-20T21:08:54.131-05:00Tina,

I am not sure if anything will come of the veggies in the veggie garden but the other stuff I incorporated into the flower garden is doing great.

They take a while to produce fruit, over 80 days from transplant I believe.

I know vegetable gardens can be a challenge each year, depending on the weather and the pests. Last year I lost all my late tomatoes to a fungus. I hope you won't give up completely; maybe just a small garden next year?<br /><br />Tina, sorry about your squash plants.
