Gardening

I’ve been trying to figure out what’s been munching on my squash plant. The plant looks healthy and I couldn’t spot any bugs. Today I took a day off and sat by the window and saw a fluffy, gray tail peeking out of the leaves… unleashed the dogs on it but another came back a few moments later. 😒🐿️

I’ve got a couple of little Kabocha squashes on the way! Squirrels have stayed away - went with the streamer method and also unleashed the paw patrol more frequently. I did buy fence spikes but waited to see if I really needed them before installing. Seems good now! 🤞

It’s only a little bigger since then haha but the other one became a casualty to the squirrels munching my plant again. I spoke too soon. 🙊

Look at them grow! You gotta post an update pic since this was a week ago ☺️🌱

Haha I definitely don’t have to deal with that in the city. The worst pest we have are neighbors. 🤣

I'm getting murdered out here, rabbits and deer said f the streamers lol

spray them or dust them with cayenne pepper.  they wont touch them.  you can even dust the path to them them (top of the fence etc) and they will stay off that as well.

Whatever you're doing, you're doing it right!  The color indicates good health!

That's brilliant stuff mate!! Looking fab!!

It has grown very well. We have also planted some pumpkin plants and I hope they will grow well

Awwww, lovely to see pandaman! So glad to hear that the squirrels didn't munch the thing dead in the end. I do recall your original post about it a few weeks ago, and I'm glad to see the progress today.

Technically a fruit! It’s a hard squash, similar to a pumpkin!

So cute! 😍 Glad to see the squashes thriving! 100 $DEGEN
