Week 40 - Bed PC1

The two nights of early frost that we had last week have put an end to any further growth in this bed, which is a shame because another month's growth would have allowed some of the fruit to mature.

A few small Ebisu pumpkins have grown, and they do not seem to have been affected by the frost. We will wait a few weeks to see if they mature at all.

The darker patch on largest of the Uchiki Squash shows that it has been damaged by the frost. Even if the fruit had matured it will not keep at all with frost damage and will likely start to rot. We will pick it in a few weeks to see what happens.
