I knitted today, and it was notably better than any time since that elbow break at Christmas. Hope is firmly in sight.

A question for all the experienced gardeners out there: if you have a squash plant germinate three weeks after the others, does that mean the rest of the arc of its growth and production over time will be less than theirs? Or just that its conditions for coming up weren’t right until they were?

No idea on the gardening question, but hooray for the knitting!

Gardening: my guess is the conditions just weren’t right until now but that it will catch up quickly.

Similar things happen here when our springs are unusually cold. But if the conditions even out the plants catch up and are going crazy by the end of summer.
