A Zuke!


To put this into perspective, I have to admit that my success rate for growing anything edible (at least in the line of what one normally considers "garden vegetables") has been appallingly bad. I have failed Radishes repeatedly. I got an F in Zucchini. I scored a fat zero in Green Beans. I was lousy at Lettuce, poor at Peas, crappy at Cucumbers and Corn, tragic at Tomatoes with a couple of exceptional years. Therefore, this zuke is worth celebrating. It's one of two developing on a plant which is still quite young. Not only that, I've been enjoying kale as microgreens as I thin it out, and have discovered that it's not as nasty as I remembered. I don't want to sour my luck, but I think I may actually have some gardening success this year.
