Oh wow!!! Everything looks really great :D I hope your cukes do better than mine do and pollinate! The corn looks really great!
I hope they do, too. Some of the flowers have already started to fade and fall off, but I don't see any fruit yet...
The corn seems to be doing really well. A few of them are even growing two ears!
