Garden Check-In

How is your garden going so far? Is it looking great? Is the weather fighting you or working with you?

I am growing a pumpkin in the greenhouse, not because it needs the protection from the weather but because of the possums who think pumpkin is the most delicious thing ever. When I tried to grow it out in the garden, they would eat some of it and try to take the rest up their tree, but they can't, so we'd find half-pumpkins at the foot of the tree. Even worse, they have clever little hands, so when we used netting, they would move the netting around until they could get to the pumpkins and eat what they could reach through the netting.

Those sneaky possums! Pumpkins are meant for you, not them. Hopefully they can't figure out how to get into the greenhouse.
