I trimmed back my squash plants and removed any yellowing or mildewed leaves. I have three Blue Hubbards, a Galeaux D'Eysines, two pumpkins but of such wildly different proportions that they are clearly not the same variety (at least one must be a Rouge Vif D'Etampe pumpkin) and two small round (but different) squash of goodness knows what variety (presumably from the random seeds I planted from a Lidl squash).
I haven't lifted them off the ground, and hope I won't come to regret that. No slug damage so far. Looking forward to harvesting them in a few weeks.
Meanwhile the onions I lifted last weekend are drying nicely in the greenhouse. Think I'll give them another week in there.
I have also picked lots more tomatillos. The plan was to make a tomatillo stew, but then I fell asleep for most of the afternoon - whoops!
