a few garden woes

Well our squash plants are doing poorly now. Because of how close we planted them together, mildew started to grow on the leaves, so mom had to pull some of the squash plants out to get rid of it. I did not take a picture of the mildew on our plants, but this is how it looks:

How the garden looks now:

Yes, mom had to put some netting around the tomatoes because at least three of our tomatoes were being eaten by birds!
