Anderwood said:Newyorkrita I'm glad to hear it! I did not get around to planting my fall peas Sad And I didn't save room. Next year!!

I am in the middle of my masters and lack of time. My honey drops just pretty much quit. We got frost last night. We had an awesome squash harvest:

Violina Rugosa, Greek Sweet Red, Peanut pumpkin, New Mexican Navajo Blue (Friend got the seeds from a Native American) and regular butternut.

Those are some lovely squashes there! Thumbs up All I ever grow are summer squash here but I also got an awesome harvest on them.

I am not getting the harvest on my fall peas that I get on my spring peas. Not as much. But I think I planted them slightly early. So next year will plant two weeks later and again hope for the best. Meanwhile will of course plant peas again in the spring. And plant Sugar Magnolia for sure!!

Honey Drop has been a hit here and doesn't look like it wants to quit. Still, it is getting very late in the season so eventually I will just pull them.
