The most important ones, to me, are spaghetti squash and Sweet Mama. Zucchinis aren't allowed anywhere near my garden; the four plants I grew by mistake once (bought as spaghetti squash) got pulled up the minute they showed their true colors.

But the plants don't produce the abundance per plant [for me] that others do. Zucchinis aren't allowed anywhere near my garden; the four plants I grew by mistake once (bought as spaghetti squash) got pulled up the minute they showed their true colors. Oh man, I love zucchs. Lunch for me last year, for about 2 weeks or so, was 2 fresh tomatoes [with basil, salt, and pepper], 2 fresh zucchs, and about a half-dozen fresh plums from the tree [golf-ball sized plum, variety unknown].

I only have about 200 square feet of actual garden space, but it's all raised beds, so I can plant a little more densely than I would in a traditional "row-type" garden. We still managed to grow about 30 different types of stuff last year. Not a lot of any one thing, but a little of lots of different things. Mark |
