Skippy and I planted squash seeds today. Its a really sunny warm day (80 F) and I’m guessing the soil is above 60 F now. I turned over the soil to mix in all the compost I added to the squash bed. Looks like great soil. I put the cucumber trellis at the back of the bed and made three hills for three different types of summer squash at the front of the bed. I planted seeds for two types of cucumbers (Diva and Striped Armenian) and three summer squashes (Zucchini, Caserta, and Sunburst). I have forgotten what the last two look like and I am looking forward to being surprised by the fruits.
