What did you do in the garden today?

This also goes for store bought products as well.

Of course it does . I guess I'm hypercautious because my allergies rule when it comes to my skin.

That is sound advice always.. if you have ever had a serious reaction common sense say's to try a minute patch away from the heart ...

Arvested some nice butternuts the other day.

Now I have 3-4 ounces of seed, that’s approximately 750-900 seeds.

My bananas are doing very well!

Lemon grass.

There are many types of pumpkins . Some in all 4 branches of the squash family . If butternut does well try Dickinson pumpkins . They are the ones the canning factories around here grow . They are in the same group as Butternut . No boer problems on these .

Ok, I’ll look into them. I don'tknow what I have, just randomly saved seeds They grew well, got big 30’ plants but only one or two pumpkins. Yeah, I didn’t have any problems with borers or blight on the butternut.
