I transplanted two Tromboncino Squash today. Each has it's own 7 gallon smart pot with black gold all purpose potting soil, and two basil plants in the pots. The basi's are durk purple. One is a ruffler, and one is a rubio something or other.

After I transplanted them, and watered them, I bagged up three bags of leaves, and scalped part of the lawn. I swear in an hours time, those Tromboncinos looked like they grew a couple of inches. Amazing, and the leaves are so pretty.

I hope your finger gets to feeling better soon. I am lucky, bees, and yellowjackets seem to like me, and never sting me, even if I'm shooshing them, or getting them out of my hair. They seem to think that my hair is a good place to land, and walk around.

I think my finger was put on it’s body behind the car handle. If you put your finger on a bee or yellowjacket, mashing it as my finger must have done to the wasp, I think they would bite you in self defense.

I think if you sat up all night you could actually see the T squash grow because it grows so fast. The leaves are pretty and big and the flowers are very large.
