Day 15 - zucchini leaves the size of T-shirts

Compost Patch - After HUGE Weeds Taken Out



In Sito Zucchinis with Propping Post

The day I left for a quick 5-day holiday to Ottawa it poured so hard that cars with passengers inside were stranded under the bridge beside my place in water halfway up their windows and firetrucks and police were at the entrance and exit ... a man was killed after being hit by lightening in the park on the way to Fiesta Farms where I went for some plants. This set the stage for humongous garden growth. When I left the zucchini leaves were the size of a spread out hand and when I returned they were as big as my T-shirt. I propped a 2x4 against the corner pole and gently lifted the two plants over about 45 degrees so they rested on the plank and weren't shading my tomato patch.
