The cantelope plant is making huge mellons. And the butternut squash is like 25ft long and has wayyyyy to many butternuts on it. I should have sniped the vine back but extra squash is free food and i usually share some with my neighbors and friends. And we hadba shit ton of grasshoppers and i killed like 90% of them with Amdro quick kill. I sprayed the entire yard 2x and around the garden but not in the actual garden. And i cant get every grasshopper under every leak on every bush so some grasshoppers live another season. Next year ill spary them again.

Looking good brother … I’m definitely jealous, I didn’t have time this year to do a vegetable garden. Barely had time to get the couple plants I got outside planted. Next year . Lol. :v:

Very nice. I had ghost peppers last year. Didn’t do garden this year due to lack of time. But I did pop a couple ghost pepper x Hawaiian chile hybrid seeds a buddy from Hawaii sent me. Started indoor and got put outside. No peppers yet but a few flowers. They were not happy while adjusting to the sun and have finally straightened up and started to grow happy again. lol :v:
