They Sprouted Overnight!

I have 38 (and counting!) delicata squash sprout overnight from one spoiled and moldy (ewwww) squash.
I stuffed it in the mound of compost I'd set out to grow my two little Moon & Stars watermelon seedlings.
The delicatas just popped up! Over night! After a couple of good night rains.
Luckily there was still a section of the garden where I'd planted clover cover crop last winter. The clover has died back. I chopped out five rows, added some more compost and tucked the little seedlings in, watered heavily. I left one sprout at the base of the watermelon growing mound. Now the waiting begins.

Thirty-eight! And then this morning as I watered the watermelons I notices that another delicata squash sprout had popped up.

I'm going to let as many grow as will and give some seedlings to the new garden project I'm helping get started for Loaves & Fishes. Later, if they all produce delicata squash, I'll donate some of them to the Loaves & Fishes kitchen for meals.

I'll add some photos and more about the Loaves & Fishes Garden Project later.
