Re: Quiet (maybe??)

We got big ones here. 2 inches, I'd guess, sometimes longer. I don't have time to completely obliterate them, so I wondered if they could survive the way worms do when part of them gets removed. When possible, I will throw them onto the sidewalk for a waiting bird or, failing that, toss them in the trash if it's close by, but if those avenues are unavailable, I'll squish. Or sometimes, if I'm just really mad at them, I will go for obliteration, no half measures.

How do you "half squish" a slug?

if you half squish a slug, does it die or can it rejuvenate itself somehow?

I've been fiddling with my new irrigation lines. How exciting is that, sports fans? Not much else going on. Squashes now have male flowers, but no females yet. Got green cherry tomatoes. Got one jalapeno about the size of a thimble and a few more blooms. Beans are going to town, but no blooms yet. Planted the second crop of bok choy on Sunday [first crop is nearly all gone] and will plant the third in a couple of weeks, then no more until fall. It's probably time to start fall greens, too, but I'm not sure where to plant them... maybe among the bush beans.
My sister made currant-raspberry jelly this AM--delicious--and there's still enough juice in the freezer for another batch.

Everyone in summer hibernation maybe? I don't have anything to say
except that it's hot, and I have too many zucchini. Probably won't have 
anything but that for another month!
