... and taking a moment to just sit in a chair in the sun for a moment before heading home. I did a quick survey of the flowers. Always got to remember to stop and look at the flowers. These "black" hollyhocks have been giving a little joy for *months* now. They just keep on going. Uploading flowers is an excuse to sit in the sun a little longer. #bloomscrolling #alloment #gyo -
ANYWAY… all my angst & uncertainty aside… we are managing an #allotment harvest all the same. Many things are not well cared for, but a lot is growing (and going to waste) despite that — we make use of what we can.
About 3 hours down here today (and all that has happened is watering & harvest, no time on tending & maintenance.)
It is a nice day. I wish I was better able to enjoy it, but instead I fret about the state of it, about the things I cannot do, about the things I need to go home and do, and the rapid drawing in of the weekend. I want to do too many things in too little time.
We have tomatoes. There is sunshine. I am outdoors. Trying to find some solace if not quite celebration.

The butternut squash may be a winner this year, but the Sunburst squash was very disappointing. It never grew with any vigor & we only got perhaps two dozen fruit from 4 hills (20 plants). I used to harvest several hundred pounds of this variety over the course of a season, every year up until last year, and now next to nothing. I am going to research a different source of seed for next year. Anyone else have a bad Sunburst crop the last couple of yrs?

Want to boost your fruit yield? 🍋🍅 Try hand-pollination!
Use a small artist's brush to gently transfer pollen between flowers. The best time is the middle of the day when the pollen is ripe and easily movable. This can lead to a much bigger harvest!
