Finally Getting Babies...Plant Babies, Of Course {Garden Journal June 2022)
![Garden Journal June 2022.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/23tvY1xJsz3p2RsA78AAAEm4SNGGg7TSmbVJJWpa51Pn3QtRcybsw71bmp1or8B98kBf8.png)

Hello friends!  Things are heating up in more ways than one this June.  Of course the weather in Atlanta always gets toasty as summer comes to smack us in the face with heat and humidity, but with it the garden is finally showing some promise of the harvests to come.  This spring was a bit up and down with weather, so my plants are just a wee bit behind usual.  My snow peas kept me going this past month with a few good handfuls every so often to enjoy, and now I can see lots of squash in the very near future...so let's jump in with our monthly stroll through the garden!

But first, let me take a selfie (or two)...

![sageselfies.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/48Kbj7qddgBTpY2FwVJvj6YCMWp3wzryWKGfip59G6MCs7EbMnDT4h3WhBs1cA5AEZ.jpg)

Instead of a snow pea mustache, this month I opted for sage eyebrows.  And a bonus beauty shot since the herb is often used in hair and skin concoctions.  Can't disappoint @riverflows without some selfie fun. ;) I'm hoping to embody the garden goddesses who have come before me in honor of an abundant harvest.


![IMG_20220602_073200551.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/23u612QbaY9Bk16837oxnmxQAJs7fgJT4qxcrbLa3ZoQfPS52hLqUaVTpRCrXWV95MhSD.jpg)

It seems the squash will be the next thing to come from garden to table, now that the snow peas are just about done for the season.  The shot above is from my volunteer squash plant that popped up near the beans that I was trying to identify last month.  I'm still a bit confused because while this looks a lot like my zucchino rampicante from last year, the fruit that's coming up is nowhere near as long and squirrely.  Perhaps it got cross-pollinated for a hybrid variety?  Either way, this one may just get plucked soon before anything else starts to nibble at it.  There are LOT's more of these coming.

![PattyPan.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/48Rrz424o7u2xU8udJDBrc4RJqs417WizZiGqUF4DiWG3E6x6fTuygZo5CGJasW2Tf.jpg)

In another bed are my pattypan squash.  The first photo is just three massive plants.  After taking my pictures I thinned out the leaves a bit so that the bees and other pollinators can make it to the flowers.  I have one just about ready to be picked, and hopefully plenty more on the way.  These are always one of my favorite squashes because they are so buttery and tender.  I think most of these are my new variety, [Gelber Englischer Custard Squash](https://www.rareseeds.com/gelber-englischer-custard-squash). We have a few friends who really love these, as well, so hoping for enough to share.


![IMG_20220602_073325047.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/23wqfzyeQSJXTe1yJXGubeLLuUQVNyzM23Qs6TNq2thxQ4KA6aeyJe53Cb4wNchXyNZHF.jpg)

We should also have some beans soon.  I planted some wax beans and Borlotto's, and I think the above is the latter given the purple/pink flowers.  Once I pull down the snow peas I think I may still have time to plant another batch of beans to extend the season out.  They're always welcome in my kitchen!


![IMG_20220602_073402464.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/Eos1JtkrNwpCSgjPwtS5tXwWCuhRfDCoGJ2d67SDmbdT7mYhRn94NCqzdto2Kys7YWz.jpg)

My cover photo is a blossom from our tomato jungle.  Even though I thinned out our seedlings, I may still have a bit of a mess on my hands as these babies grow.  I think I'd rather have too many than not enough given how hard the critters usually hit us on the tomato front, though!  I found my first little baby cherry tomato after I put my phone away, so just like with everything else, fingers crossed for lots more to come!

We need to work this weekend on giving these a little support, but so far they've grown up nice and strong.  I've started plucking any suckers I find to keep pushing the energy to growing fruit.  Though the mosquitoes are voracious in their own sucking when we spend any time out there.

Speaking of support systems...


![IMG_20220602_073150449.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/23wWw7vS22vY8jnqMNWZ5kiDCd71mv1cjMszsf3SkmkUWSbEuPsAbDLrjYaQTnCTSYxRb.jpg)

@dksart rigged this new cage to let our cucumbers happily climb their way up.  My sister already has baby cukes on hers, but perhaps we'll be able to supply each other with our staggered harvests.  I planted both lemon cukes and regular ones, so we'll see which is which since I of course forgot to mark them.  I did the same thing with the squash after thinking I'd remember.  Nope, you never remember.  But at least I know what type of plant it is in general.


![IMG_20220602_073659393.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/23xp22BzhRHV1uTbpNneDnQKRvKU3jkWdJTnZzR6jnyAxGrjJ4ANpbCz2ARmYA2mcU6uF.jpg)

Ooh, back to the squashes, I do have two pumpkin plants vining out like crazy.  We've had a few little baby pumpkins start then rot off, but that seems to happen with the first couple of fruits.  These are [Jarrahdale](https://www.rareseeds.com/jarrahdale-pumpkin), so even if I only get a few that will make me pretty happy!


![Figs.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/48JdawtMyksg3Fi9wf3PhWdwuoEHUZYq6ypMW3Z8mpxCFqgg6jamYREVs6iLWyqNJ3.jpg)

On the fruit side of things, my figgies are looking fantastic!  I think I showed our existing tree in my last garden journal and how good it looked.  It continues to grow like mad (much taller than me now) and we have lots of babies popping up.  In the pot is the small cutting I ordered this year, finally sprouting some leaves.  I think we'll just be leaving that in the pot until we can plant it out next spring since it's a bit late in the season to transplant it.  We weren't sure if it was going to make it originally, so very happy to see it looking good now.


![IMG_20220602_073633932.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/plantstoplanks/Eonja6yhSyB3Vhgj6gyN4f9sCLdPJSydeZp5qhTTwds9kB7CpH8kooQhofPj93WnjUT.jpg)

Finally, some watermelon!  These took a bit to take off, but perhaps we'll get to harvest a few during the summer.  Last year something ate the maturing fruits before they were even near harvest time.  A possum we think is likely.  This year we'll have to pay closer attention to protecting them as they grow.

Darn pests.  I don't mind sharing some, but when they take most of your harvest it's a bit frustrating!

I hope you've once again enjoyed seeing our seasonal progress!  It's always a pleasure to jump in the [Garden Journal](https://peakd.com/hive-140635/@riverflows/june-garden-journal-challenge-win-hive) fun.  I can't seem to find much time to post otherwise, so this gives me a good excuse to get at least one post a month, haha.  And to catch up with my other favorite Hive gardeners!

Happy growing my friends!

Those squashies look so cute and amazing. I am happy to see that you watermelons are pretty much as the same growth level as mine.

I love my little squashies.  My sister's watermelon has taken off, but I think she planted hers earlier indoors.  Mine is slowly coming along, but still no baby fruits on any of them just yet.  Patience really is the name of the game with gardening, isn't it?

Hey @ifarmgirl!  Glad you enjoyed the latest selfie inspiration, haha.

I'm really happy with the squash so far!  Usually once the first comes in, they just keep on coming.  Nothing like pulling a fresh bean right off the plant and eating it fresh out of the garden, as well.

Now just trying to stay patient for the cucumbers and tomatoes! :)

Looks like you were having fun with the selfie :) 

It's great to know squash are generous when it comes to their fruits, never grown any yet :) And yes, beans are always great to pick. 

Tomatoes seem to take more time before they start fruiting. I've not been able to successfully grow cucumbers. Tried it 3 times on different seasons but no luck on them hehe. All the best to you as you wait for them :)

Oh wow, what a very nice and healthy garden your baby fruits are stunning too I love how your squash in the first photo looks like an avocado and the rest of your squashes seemed to survive well unlike here there's more chance of falling than surviving and the figs wow I'm envious with your garden @plantstoplanks.πŸ₯Ί

Thanks @luckylaica!  It is always interesting to see what grows where.  Squash always does well here, but I would love to grow avocadoes and some of the things you can grow there.  I guess we can't have it all, right? :)

You're welcome @plantstoplanks. I guess avocado is expensive there and here we have grown them a lot but unluckily due to the typhoon that hits us most of the avocado trees fell.

Thank you @multifacetas!  We are quite lucky here with our growing conditions.  Of course Mother Nature throws plenty of curve balls, but overall it's pretty easy to get at least a few things growing!

Who was the Hive Gardener who had all this ready to print as soon as the challenge went out? Go you. 

Those selfies are priceless as usual - you are the QUEEN of garden selfies! 

Haha I NEVER remember what I planted until it fruits - you remember ball park (or squash park) but it's always a suprise in the end. A cross pollinated variety could be fun! I had a mate who ended up with these amazing striped spaghetti squashes. I'm going to purposefully try that this year! 

@dksart 's trellis looks great too - I love climbing things. It's such a clever use of space and so much easier to pick, rather than leaving the fruit on the ground for bugs. I tend to think 'must make trellis, must make trellis' for ages and then it's a jungle and I'm like 'fuck, forgot to make the trellis'. 

Love your garden journal - stay safe from those bugs!

Haha, well I had seen @zekepickleman's update, so it reminded me it was that time again! ;)

That sage smelled amazing rubbing it all over my face, haha!  Trying to keep those leaves on my eyebrows long enough to take a photo was a challenge.  Always fun to come up with something for the monthly post, though.

Having a few things trellised definitely helps.  The squash we usually let run all over, but the cukes seem to do well with somewhere to climb.  I give him credit for creativity.

The garden looks great, so much growing. Harvesting already, I'm jealous. 😁

You can never have too many tomatoes, and like you said, it's always fun to have extra to share.
Let @dksart know that the cucumber cage is a masterpiece!
Volunteers are always a pleasant sight, that's if you don't think they're a weed and pluck'em.
Last year we had a volunteer squash that we had no idea what it was.
It produced football, shape and size, squash. 
Cross pollinated for sure, we thought with a spaghetti squash.
The figs look really healthy. They're something I would like to try, but I'd have to look into whether they would make it in our zone.

Funny selfie, you sure do come up with some good ones.

Peace!

As that volunteer grows, I think it definitely is more spaghetti squash than anything else!  The skin has grown thicker and has that nice yellow hue.  I almost plucked it early, but I think I'll let it grow a little bit more to be sure.

He is happy to make trellises out of any found item, though the cage is definitely a new one!  Usually lots of tree branches, as you noted in your post--free support!

The only bad thing about having that many tomatoes is that the hornworms may be tougher to find.  We always tend to get an onslaught of those each year, though I'm wondering if doing a bit of tilling in the beds will have killed off some of the larvae.  Time will tell!

I'd be curious about the figs for you, as well.  You might be just a little bit too far north, but there really are so many varieties that grow in different conditions!

Nice selfies and I love to see all the green and the baby fruits. Here some broad beans appeared, yesterday but I have to admit that I was kind of distracted from tending to my garden due to real life stuff as well as uncerainty over how much longer I can stay in my rental house.

Sending you a hug from central Portugal

Thanks @vincentnijman!  Gardens do, quite literally, require roots.  I hope you can stay for as long as you need, but if not, perhaps a new space with a new plot in which to grow a few things will be on the horizon.  The housing situation here is quite mad, so I'm even more grateful than usual to have our little green refuge!

Many hugs right back!

Hi Katie,

> I hope you can stay for as long as you need, but if not, perhaps a new space with a new plot in which to grow a few things will be on the horizon. 

I am not too worried about the latter part of your sentence. 
I know that I will have my own ( part of an ) abundant food forest, sooner rather than later. In fact, with all the friends and acquaintances around me, I already have plenty of addresses to get all kinds of healthy and fresh goodies.

Abraço!
