The raised bed plot is doing quite nicely.
I seemed to have panicked when seeing the seeds being dug up.
I did lose a few, but more than enough are growing and developing.
The cucumbers, begun from HD seedlings, have reached the trellis and have begun to produce female flowers.
Will I need to hand pollinate, or will the local critters take care of that for me?
We do get some honey bees, but not many.
The kabocha are big, strong and look to be healthy, still got a long ways to go before reaching the trellis, though.
Watermelon and musk melon are developing more slowly, but look OK.
EDIT:
The cats seem to have lost interest in the plot.
At first it looked good.
Now it isn't as easy to dig in.
I have only found one cat bomb in the bed.
That was a while ago.

Was a Democrat until gun control became a knee jerk, then a Republican until the crazies took over, back to being a nonpartisan again.
This time, I can no longer participate in the primary.
