I tore out my kale, and I replaced it with a butternut squash transplant, which needs about three months of no frost to grow - to be harvested right before the first frost of the year.
So now was a good time to plant it. I'm very excited about growing butternut squash, but I am nervous about it taking over the garden. From all I read and hear, it would spread out over the entire garden if I let it. My plan is to wait a little, and then try to coax it upward, a la vertical gardening.
This is obviously a first for me to grow butternut squash, but if all works out, it won't be the last!
