From planting tiny peanut seeds to pulling up the plants and seeing an actual harvest… this was SO exciting! 😍

I had never grown peanuts before, so harvesting them for the first time was such a cool gardening experience. 🌿🥜

Have you ever grown peanuts at home?

Good morning from the garden! 🌱☀️ There’s nothing quite like spotting the first little butternut squash seedlings emerging from the soil. 💚

These tiny sprouts are the beginning of what will hopefully become a beautiful harvest of homegrown butternut squash! 🌿

Squash gardeners—CHECK YOUR VINES. 🌱🚨

I found squash vine borer eggs today and attacked them with blue painter’s tape, you can actually see how tiny they are.

The eggs are easy to overlook… but the larva that hatches from them is the stage that causes the real trouble.

🐛 Egg → larva → pupa → adult moth

If you grow squash, zucchini, pumpkins, or other cucurbits, save this post and share it with someone who gardens.

Save this life cycle visual for later, so you know what to look for! ✅

Have you seen these on your vines?

Fall gardening starts long before the weather cools down! 🌱

If you're wondering what seeds to start indoors for a Central Texas fall garden, this video walks you through my seed-starting process from start to finish. I'll show you how I sow seeds in trays, set up for successful germination, and get healthy seedlings ready for transplanting when fall planting season arrives.

Starting seeds indoors is one of the best ways to stay ahead of the Texas heat and grow strong plants for fall harvests. Whether you're growing broccoli, cabbage, kale, lettuce, cauliflower, or other cool-season crops, timing and proper seed-starting techniques can make a huge difference in your garden's success.
