what a great summary!! What zone are you located in?
I’ve heard so many people saying to plant squash after the squash bug is done reproducing for the year, and this year I did just that with surprisingly good results.
I’ve let my yard go a bit more wild than usual this year because of health reasons, so other than mowing the lawn I haven’t planted much other than some old beans and squash seeds I had laying around. Whatever else has volunteered, though, I let stay. The critters have been loving it all, and I occasionally get a random tomato or string bean.
My raspberries took OFF this year, after 3 years of growing maybe a foot a year and producing zero berries. I have to cut it back because the branches outgrew the terrace for it. I think neglect is the key for these guys too.
