Normally, I can't get much to grow, but this year...wow! Stuff is everywhere, even where I didn't plant. DH threw melon seeds and rinds out all year and now I don't know what is growing.
My question: There is a very healthy vine growing all over the backyard with huge orange flowers that open then close. Is this watermelon, cantelope, pumpkin, gourd, etc. My DH is getting excited that he is gonna have some good fruit and I can't figure out what it is.
Also, when are green beans ripe? I have lots of green beens on my plants, when can I pick them?
The compost pile has stuff growing in it too! We have had so much rain and the plants in the shade are just so healthy, but I have no clue what they are. How can I find out?
Thanks!
