I have one plant that is much seedier than the others and I know it is a different variety. Maybe dry weather would have an affect. Hope you are getting some rain today.<br />GinaGinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420137490490341730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-58165332002676812182012-07-20T12:28:11.318-04:002012-07-20T12:28:11.318-04:00I just took a double batch of Zucchini Relish out ...I just took a double batch of Zucchini Relish out of your Grandmother's pressure canner.

My corn has done the same thing as yours in the storms recently. I took and tried to stand them back up and pack the dirt around the base with my foot. All but the biggest ones stayed straight and continued to grow. The ones that did lean back over, the sun straightened up somewhat. But they all lived and are growing. Your kids look like they are having a blast! I wish I could send mine out to play but in high 90s and 100s with no shade in the yard, that would be too much.nicolenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-78154413214365239472012-07-20T08:29:31.251-04:002012-07-20T08:29:31.251-04:00Coleen

I've missed a few zucchini during my daily harvest and have thrown the zucchini boats in the chicken pen. The chickens seem to enjoy them too! When the grandkids get back I can let them make boats to sail out of any more over grown zukes. The creek is dry so I will have to invent a new place to sail them.Grannie Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16809173900277964485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-74747549569698970772012-07-19T13:46:43.702-04:002012-07-19T13:46:43.702-04:00I do so love the word bonkers!
