It is nearly Halloween, and the best gardening news I have right now is that, yes, there is an appropriate vegetable to be growing this time of year here. It is a round zucchini varietal, and I am chuffed to see a few that are well on their way!
I have 4 plants in one of those self watering planters from gardener's supply. The roots aren't so big on squash and these plants really love their water. They look like they are doing awesome in this setup. They were planted in the last few days of September. I will definitely add this variety into my seasonal rotation. They are absolutely thriving in my backyard.
I would like to add, I normally have the worst time with powdery mildew on any type of squash, and the problems have been minimal with this "(Cucurbita pepo) (aka Eight Ball, Round Nice)" variety.
I tried to email someone (admittedly over a month ago--- extremely late post, Sorry!) and this "Spam Arrest" program that they actually paid for popped up. It asked me to agree to their terms of service and give identifying information before being able to send a simple email to the person in question. Naturally I needed more information prior to agreeing to such terms. This is what I found.
Sounds link a pretty open ended, catch all, save your ass for whatever information you send to other entities clause to me.
So......some people are actually paying for a service that has and uses the ability to scan, filter, and read each and every email that attempts to enter their inbox? Do people not even care about their 4th amendment rights anymore? I do. No thank you. A BIG no fucking thank you to your email pre-paid pre-screening. I honestly could not in good conscience write a letter with such forewarned surveillance to the person in question. I found another way to contact this person. Spam arrest? You should be ashamed of yourself. That's before you get burned at the stake for your crimes against patriots, fellow humans and good citizens.
