Garden 2020: Our First Zucchini!

Today I went out to water the sweet potato plants (I had just learned that they need watering every day for the first two weeks then every other day for a week, then less frequently!) and decided to give all the plants a drink.

This is what I found in the zucchini patch!!!


Okay, so you can barely see it. AND it is probably only 3 inches long, BUT IT IS A ZUCCHINI!!!  Our first one.  The plants seem to have taken off once I put that pine straw mulch around it.  Truly,  in about three days the plants were more than double in size.  Of course, Heavenly Father was watering them rather heavily for a whole week, so it is little wonder they are so happy.  I just need to keep it up!
