Notes

I forgot to water it in the morning, and then it hit 86ºF. It was very wilted and droopy when I got home. I dunked the whole peat pot in the watering can, stuck it in the ground, and watered some more. I hope it survives.

So, 12 hours later, with a rainstorm last night, the once-super-floppy zucchini looks perfectly happy and healthy. Yay! (I just uploaded a photo of the seedlings. The staked one is the straightneck squash)

Only ended up getting one fruit off this.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
