I love your videos. They are so calming.

[@littlesaltyhomesteader]

@@lovejoynr oh gosh, thank you!

Serenity!! Thank you for sharing and inviting me into your gardening journey! Can you please post what seeds you used for your squash?

[@littlesaltyhomesteader]

@@jilljaquez2069 thank you!
The varieties I planted were Black Beauty Zucchini, Benning’s Green Tint Scallop Squash, Ronde de Nice Zucchini and Yellow Scallop Squash. Hope that helps!

[@jilljaquez2069]

@@littlesaltyhomesteader It sure does! Thanks again!!

Perfect 2nd round squash planting time. Good call. You can replant summer squash in this area and then winter too.
The squash bore moth is winding down end of June to beginning of July so their threat is about over. Pumpkin planting time for me.

We are going to be making some changes to incorporate an arched trellis - what smaller pumpkin variety do you suggest for next year?

[@marylowe2867]

Do you ever fix okra and tomato l really good.?

[@littlesaltyhomesteader]

@@marylowe2867 do you mean together? I have made stewed okra dishes in a Mediterranean style, Cajun style and Indian style. All were super delicious, and I should probably make them again 😂

[@marylowe2867]

Yes, just stew them together, plain but good.. all the sounds really yummy.

@@littlesaltyhomesteader Check out the Jack Be Little pumpkins (RUclips videos of them). They're around a pound size fruit, produce a lot of tiny pumpkins perfect for trellis growing, like a whole lot of them. These seem like a good choice for the size growing area you have. In the 4-6 pound range New England Sugar Pie or Winter Luxury Pie. I've mainly grown Big Max for the past 15 years, those get 30 or 40 pounds +, but decided to go with Connecticut Field Pumpkins (carving/decoration/culinary) and Red Warty Thing (carving/decoration/culinary/puree) this year. Baker Creek/Rare Seeds usually has all those varieties of seeds mentioned here.
