This week in the garden

Harvest: about 10 onions, 2 zucchini, and a wacky cucumber

Developments: zucchini, cherry tomatoes, Honeynut squash, butternut squash, calendula flowers and sunflowers

Retirements: RIP the yard Honeynut squash plant with one sad lonely fruit, countless Japanese beetles drowning in soapy water, and snow peas officially removed and seeds saved for next year.
