In years past, our "harvest" did not always live up to our expectations.
Case in point: {see above} our zucchini... our aunt & uncle's zucchini.
Thankfully, our gardening skills have grown over time {& one dud after another}. And so has our zucchini.
Come visit us over at Pink Moon Daily to see how proper fertilizing took our zucchini from duds to studs.
* Two other huge factors of this 'successful turn of events'...
- went from drastically over [& in some cases, under]-watering to watering as needed (in early morning hours... slowly & directly on the soil- around the plants).
- went from very poor [cheap] to nutrient rich soil [the 'good stuff'] {see 'how we now prep our soil' here}.
LOVE that pic of your hubs with zuchini show! Blinkin 'eck missus! Heading over to the studs from duds toot sweet.
