It's a jungle out there

The pumpkins seem really happy climbing up that telephone pole. I can't help thinking that's the coolest thing. We need more of that sort of thing in this city! Think of the potential. Melons at every street corner. Why not?

My cucumbers are taking their time to bloom; not sure why, because they look really happy too, nestled behind that sheltering sunflower.

The leaf miners continue to think they own my chard, but they've got another think coming.

I think my carrots are going to be very short little things - I tried one. That's probably the last time I follow HtGMV's carrot transplanting advice.

I continue to aim all my squash and melons out to the back laneway, and make the melons grow more vertically as well. It's very exciting.
