First Mystery Revealed

It looks like the smaller of my mystery squash has revealed itself: petty pan! Not my favorite but I have to admire how persistant this rascal is!

Mystery Squash Growth!

My son and I marked where our mystery squash was this past Monday and then again today. Almost two feet in six days! It also started blooming this week. Still no sense on what it is...

My Mystery Squash

I was thrilled to learn I am not the only gardner who gets a kick (cultivates even) mystery compost squash that appear in their garden. Bramble Berries in the Rain has her own mystery squash and I personally think ours are twins. Toni's Weedless Squarefoot garden also has a mystery squash. It will be fun to see the 'final reveal' in the fall.

(Also, in a desparate move this morning, I stuck a couple of the snails I found in the garden in the birdfeeder -hoping that the birds would do the dirty work. Sadly, the snails wiggled off before a bird could get them. Lazy birds~)
