I’ve got volunteer squash, cilantro, dill and basil as well as the tomatillos. I don’t even bother buying tomatillo plants or seeds any more, I can count on them coming up as volunteers each year. But the one by the taters was much bigger than the other ones in their normal spot.

We often have volunteers in our compost pile too, but I never thought that a mesh cart would be subject to volunteers. LOL

I want to thank whoever it was that posted here on the garden thread a suggestion to use traps for our pesky gophers. I bought some online and we trapped four of them just this morning. They work exquisitely. This thread is awesome. I’d never have known what to do and my husband was apprehensive that they’d work, but they do. The trick is not to use them on old gopher holes, only the new ones that have just been dug. We get them every time.

Thank you - thank you - thank you!
