It was mentioned on here not long ago about end rot. My zucchini plants took off, and are huge. I picked one over a foot long today that seemed quite solid, but the two others I picked were shorter, and the ends were starting to rot. Is there a reason for this? I think I'll just chop the bad end off.
I gave one of the soft-end ones to my neighbor who's going to fry it. I'm in a debate what I'll make, but I might batter and fry some of it, serve with tomato sauce, and shred the rest of the zucchini for zucchini bread. As is tradition, my cabbage was half eaten, and the ones that weren't eaten look like they'll amount to nothing, for some reason. At least the groundhogs are leaving my zucchini alone this year.
I haven't grown green beans in years, and I left many of them on the vine too long. The pods swelled up and became too firm. My tomato plants are huge, but I've only had a few ripe tomatoes so far. Bell peppers and banana peppers didn't grow much. I don't have a single bell pepper ready. I haven't hardly looked at the other bed with potatoes, onions, garlic, and horseradish. I think I planted leeks this year, too. Watermelon, carrots, and a few other things I'm forgetting.
