I have room on board, for now.

It's early March, and I still haven't found my collection of winter squash seeds, nor my pole wax beans. They could be almost anywhere in the house, other than the attic.

As I was in a near sleepless fog last year, when it came to putting the collection away for the season, I had no idea where I put things until I started looking for, and finding, them. Live and learn, as this year things will be put away in an orderly fashion.
That's what they ALL say! I know, because I am currently slogging through a huge box full of tiny little baggies of tomato seeds and trying to get them in my spreadsheet before my MMMM package comes. You can hold off on mine for a while longer. :lol: I swear I will NEVER let them go this long again..... :roll:
SO GLAD to be back! I was locked out for about three months, for some strange reason. :shock:

Missed you all terribly! :cry:

The Monstahs have arrived.

Is this the next generation of the Hubbard cross that you sent the previous year?

And if so, do you think that it is worth growing out both of them, or just the Monstah?

hey gary,

i am not sure about the monstah family tree. it might be a cross of sweet fall, and one of the hubbards
even though sweet fall was in a different garden, bees will be bees. its either that or one of the hubbards
segregating out. nothing else in the garden was like it last year or the year before. the previous year seeds,
that squash was very good. skin was orange with green mottling. i saved seeds from a similar squash this year
that was again very good. the monstah was excellent. if you have room, grow both otherwise grow the monstah.
