I guess with the frequent waterings, the soil level went down enough that the stems were exposed. Before I realized what was happening, the stems were soft and rotten. I blame the abundance of leaves for my misfortune! But I can't say I'm that upset, I got some crazy zucchinis off this plant and I'm really sick of watering it, anyway. Frankly, I'm tired of super heat, swarms of mosquitos and eyebrow sweat in general. Are you with me?
Byebye squash no-I see one there still hanging on :) LOL
ReplyDeleteBeen there. I killed everything this summer. I also get sick of the watering.
ReplyDeleteI am with you! And your squash plant looks like my basil plant.
ReplyDeleteYou did better than me! I didn't even get around to a proper vegetable garden this year.

ReplyDeleteso hot this year. I am totally ready for fall. Thankful we have change of seasons and can look forward to something new.
ReplyDeleteoh, yes, i am with you. almost. we lost one but it seems to be coming back! we haven't harvested anything but tomatoes yet so i'm holding out hope...
ReplyDeletealso i love your plastic bins as pots- brilliant!
Your squash is in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteSo true!! I'm ready for some cooler weather.
ReplyDelete100% with you! I kill all plants - that's why I don't have any. I say good riddance!
ReplyDeleteThis summer was stupid hot. Can't wait for fall.
ReplyDeleteMy peppers want to be friends with your squash plants. Although they might have actually made it if they didn't get completely crushed by my ginormous tomato plants! lol
ReplyDeleteWe're on our 7th heat wave of the summer! I've been gardening for 5 years and my plants are struggling with all this heat. I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteMy plum tomatoes never did get right...
Yes - I'm totally over the heat and humidity. I'm hoping fall comes soon.
ReplyDeleteI am so with you.....just plain sick of watering and the heat. Bring on fall!
ReplyDeleteMy flowers are over the heat too. They are starting to show signs of dieing off. Fall is right around the corner.
ReplyDeleteThis has been a really sweaty summer, yuck! I'm done watering too. So glad most of the gardens can hold on and not be watered like crazy like last year.
ReplyDeleteI dry humped by air conditioner for 1/2 hour last night when I got home from work.
ReplyDeleteTotally with you on the heat/humidity! But woe - I live in Florida! It'll be cool-ish in November, I guess.
