      My zucchini has been amazing! First time growing it and just a single plant but I’ve probably gotten like 8 large bois from it. Tomatoes seem suuuuper late, tons of berries but not even a hint of ripening.

        What variety is it? Some are predisposed to having longer/shorter ripening times,

          Zuckertraube. Yeah could be that, just noticed today that my Sweet Sturdy tomatoes have begun ripening, yay!

            Oh congratulations! Zuckertraube does take a bit longer, but the result is super sweet and tiny tomatoes, perfect for salads! Sweet sturdy is good too as I’ve heard, though there are so many varieties that it’s hard to keep track of! :D

      I learned you harvest zucchini before they get massive as the taste is inversely related to the size though

        Try picking them young while they still have flowers, use them quickly.

      Idk, I’ve mostly been quite successful with tomatoes. This year not so much, but then again, I planted the pumpkins too close, they gobbled up all the nutrients
