Today was clean up the garden day. We've had so much rain in the last few days, a lot of leaves and small branches were in the yard. Moved all the containers and raked it up. Then I sprayed a bug killer near the side of the cottage. Let it dry before putting the containers back. I saw a beetle just sitting on a cherry tomato leaf watching me work. The nerve! I'm sure it looked comical when I chased it down. He managed to get away. I'll be keeping a diligent eye out for him.

| Crookneck Squash |
I replanted the squash, zucchini and cucumbers from starter plants. I have them in different parts of the garden so I hope that makes a difference.

| Harvest |
Cleaned up my yellow wax beans as the foliage was looking terrible. Some of the leaves were yellow with holes. I harvested what I could, even some that were not ready yet. I still have some flowers and beans on them but it's looking sparce. They are supposed to be bush beans but mine aren't bushy. I added a few more beans to the soil and supports so the leaves and stems don't hang over the pot brushing the ground. The banana peppers are doing well.
