Year 1 update 1

New sugarbaby watermelon sprouts at day 8...I think. Will be planting them not this weekend, but the next.


Waltham butternut squashes at day 16 or so with their first true leaves! Will be planting them this weekend. I think I planted one of them too deep. I don't know.


I am also conducting an experiment on the roma tomatoes. Since romas are determinates, there is conflicting information on whether to prune or not. So, for three of them, I got rid of all side branches below the first flowers; the others I have left alone. Supposedly, that will strengthen the main stem. And we'll see how that goes.
