No indeed. It’s alive and

next door the cabbages are
hanging out then: windows
and screaming at me.
That was nothing, though,
compared to the arrogance
and ceaseless complaints
from the pickle patch.
Pickles are devious,
demanding and daring,
wanting attention almost
every moment. Turn your
back for even a moment and
they launch out with those
slave-driving whips that
strangle your ankles and
send out a batalhon of bees
to buzz your nose and ears.
“Why do I plague

July’s heat strikes and this
slave realizes that the pool
would beat out the pickle
patch any day.
“Next year this isn’t

beans off Mom, zucchini
from the neighbors and
pickles from Heinz,” I
promise the mirror in a
moment of 95° desperation

Silk clipping after pollination
NEWARK, Del. - This is

out that pollination occurs
during a relatively short
period of tune-10 to JC hours,
depending on growing
conditions. Silk clipping by
