This is the squash plant that is thriving in my garden. Do you know what’s amazing about this squash?
- I did not plant it
- I do not water it
- I do not weed around it
Yet there it is. It produces those yellow summer squash that are pretty much peaked zucchini. (Peaked, as in pee-kid. Look it up.) You gardeners out there will understand that we have so much squash I could start a farm stand.
On the contrary, I lovingly planted a sugar snap pea plant earlier this summer. I watered it and weeded around it and said nice things to it. This is what I received in return:
This plant produced one pea. One. And it was tiny.
Clearly my best approach is to be hands-off in the garden.
