Squash bed #1
Back bed
Was rototilled last fall
A few weeds coming up
Turned over a strip down the middle with shovel
Laid down black plastic 10' wide
Planted 8 butternut squash Dam18 from 1204's
Alternated with 8 ichi-kiri squash
This way ichi-kiri and Hubbard shouldn't cross pollinate
West side if bed laid down 4ft poly
Planted black and stripe sunflower in existing holes
Ferted 10-52-10
Put some grass along edges to reshape bed
Re levelled front flagstone under redbud
Dig out trench at end of drain pipes
Leaves there were all black and smelly
