Welcome to the Jungle

It's been so blasted hot that I've neglected my gardening duties (although there aren't many weeds) and the tomatoes, squash, and melons have run amok. I really need to get out there and prune the tomatoes, harvest the jalapenos and anaheims, AND conquer the squash bugs.


My summer squash has powdery mildew and I've heard that you can treat by spraying it with milk (don't do it in the heat of the day, though).

Butternut squash - yum!

How does your garden grow?
