The jitters never end. You just have to get used to it.

They get worse as the season progresses. You will have dreams of splits and rotten pumpkins. I know someone who had a dream Squash Vine Borers were in her basement. She no longer grows...

Farming- a bunch of catastrophies that result in a lifestyle

Good to know I'm not the only one dreaming about blossom splits and rotting stumps.

This is not a hobby for the weak...or those let down easily. All your hard work can be gone in a second. The more I think about it...the more I wonder why I grow. So I choose to not think and just grow :)

Good one Nor-cal
Yeah, it really is an all in hobby. I culled a 40 pounder off a plant today, down to one- it's go for broke now.
I'm having a glass of wine.
