August 08, 2011 -- Day before my 48th birthday. Feeling a little old, but note how a hiker at Space Mountain asserted that I've got a long way to go before getting old the other day. Anyway, starting this with an inauspicious post regarding zucchini. Above zucchini are from same six-pack purchased at local Nursery (Alpine Nursery in Newbury Park) a few months back. Picked both, along with other zucchini and tomatoes on Friday.
The darker green, grocery-store quality zucchini was from a raised bed filled with bags of gardening soil. The other from a bed filled with a bulk mulch-native soil mix I purchased from Carlson's in Thousand Oaks. Believe the green comes from additional nitrogen in the soil.
