Hi all,

I am super pleased with my radishes this year. They are
now too big for the earwigs to hassle with. I didn't
look for two days and they have doubled in size! Yippee!
Something I can't kill!

Questions:

1) how will I know when they can be harvested?

2) can I leave them in the ground and harvest them
at different times to keep them from spoiling?

Many thanks,

Radishes in my area just keep getting bigger and hotter until they
start splitting until I pull them and put them in the composter. It
all depends on your climate.

George, up early to feed the !@#$% dawg

Max has a demand feeder ... but every morning around 6:30 he gets me
up to make the coffee . We walk while it brews , he gets some in a bowl
with milk then he goes outside on his lead - usually after a friendly
game of tug .

This morning while we were walking I found a volunteer squash (I
think) in an unexpected spot - nowhere near the garden . It's not in the
way and I'm interested in just what it is , so I'll leave it there .

Snag

Probably a bird drop Snag. When we lived on the farm it was not unusual
to find something sprouting where we didn't put it. Birds or mice will
plant for you if they don't eat all the seeds.

Tilly Dawg is only allowed one third of a cup of dog food by vet's
demand. Consequently, being a rescue dog, she thinks she's starving to
death all the time. Eat a meal and she stands where she can see you
eating and has her head down and is seriously thinking of taking your
food away from you. Still, in all my 77 years she has been the best dog
I've ever had. I swear, if she could talk, she would use perfect
English. I can have her moving just by hand signals, and she stops when
I cut my throat with my hand.
