A seed's journey—week 7 update, Friday, July 5th. Sunflowers replace garlic, baby bunny eats too much and a mystery squash wilt. The Garden Fairy is in charge!
Your Garden Fairy is so cute! I have enjoyed watching how your garden is growing. It has been amazing. This is something I would like to do, but alas the iguanas are huge and even if I had a wall around a garden, they would find a way in and eat every single thing.
Have you checked the squash for squash vine borers? I haven't dealt with them personally but I believe they are a common cause for sudden wilting in squash!
Awe - yes Sara this is what I have squash vine borers - they are disgusting. I pulled 1 squash out and I will go hunting for more. I saw a red wasp but it was a moth the adult version - then I looked it up. Fingers crossed I can - kill them organically. Thank you.
Um…. Since I am the only single certified organic farmers in my entire county, the fourth largest in Missouri, white tailed deer take an average of 1/3 of my organic corn before it is harvested. A nice little $500 per acre donation. 😡

Thank you Sara, that’s a good idea. I will do some research. 🧐 it does appear one section is struggling-even though I have squash appearing.
Thank you, Wendy.. I really enjoyed reading about your garden, and the pictures! ❤🐰
But most of all, I enjoyed meeting your Garden Fairy--love her!! 😍
Thank you Finding Grace-she says hello, grin.
I like that you replaced garlic with flowers and kept using the space. Do you ever have trouble with bugs?
We have never had a problem with bugs in the past-but they are near the horseradish too.
Wendy, I love your garden fairy. You're veggies all look great, especially the swiss chard!
I can’t wait to try some Swiss Chard soon Pamela! Thank you!
You could always enjoy fried rabbit :), Nice garden Wendy :)
Awe Stephen—that’s my problem I am to kind to all the creatures, grin. Thank you for compliment!

Such an enjoyable happy read.
Glad you enjoyed Sheryl.
“I believe it’s an incredible experience to watch a seed grow into something delicious to eat! God’s gift.”
There is no greater act of faith than planting a seed.
