Hello,
It's been a long time since the courgettes in my garden (in the Parisian suburbs) are oidium nests ... and I had "abandoned" the land at the beginning of September, telling me that there would only be apples left to harvest , but we spent this weekend with my brother-in-law to continue the slave labor ...
and there surprise! the squash and zucchini feet are in perfect health, and some zucchini specimens wait patiently for us. The green squash foot made 4 or 5 squash, the biggest of which is big as a grapefruit, so I left them, to see ...
the tomato feet never saw the shadow of a guardian, but that did not prevent them from producing a few small tomatoes which embellished our picnic.
Apart from that, the orchard requiring above all to see the light, My brother-in-law attacked a first phase of pruning the hedge while I finished clearing the meadow tip that I could not do the last time, a a good hundred square meters of ground released thujas and brambles.
In this photo we can see the courgettes and squash in the foreground and behind the freshly cleared area which will host part of the 2020 vegetable garden. The hay roll is in the starting blocks :-) we have "stored" it in a corner and it will take place next spring.
This photo (ugly and shaken) is still quite symptomatic of the orchard ... we vaguely distinguish, like ghosts, the trunks of the fruit trees, right in the foreground thujas branches cut on the left a shower of brambles falling from the foliage of the apple tree.
... to be continued ...
