Squash roundup

De nice a ronde, trailing green marrow and patty pan the best producers so far. The pickling cucumbers are very bitter. Crookneck all very small so far. Lots of male flowers being produced, so need to get more manure.

So far, winter squash are not prolific. One fruit per plant. Pumpkin growing like crazy, no fruit.

Garden pearl tomato review

A small pinkish tomato. Seeds all germinated, loads of healthy plants. Plenty of fruits per plant. Tomatoes go from green to a pearly colour before turning a pinkish red. Taste so far is unexceptional. First to ripen. Great for hanging baskets and pots, plant does not get big.
