PaulDavisTheFirstPaulDavisTheFirst@fosstodon.orgOct 4, 2026, 4:03 PM@alisynthesis you got winter squash .... another year here in NM when my efforts to grow them failed utterly (despite it working a couple of times in earlier years).
We have collard greens, kale, chard, wild arugula still growing strong, and basil and a few tomatoes still left to harvest.
Lovely looking beds!

@PaulDavisTheFirst my winter squash haul was not impressive this year for some reason, but generally they do really well here. Maybe a humidity thing? Plants are so fickle! :)
That sounds like a really good fall crop. I'm always kind of tapped out by fall so I don't try very hard to stretch the season. Maybe next year will be my year! :laughing:

Great harvest. How much time is left for those Swiss chard and zucchinis to be harvested ?
