This came up unexpectedly and I’m waiting to see what it’ll be. I didn’t plant any squash or pumpkins this year. In fact I’ve never planted either in this garden bed. We affectionately call it our “pumquash” while we wait.

I have it under a greenhouse because we had our first frost warning this weekend, and I’d really like at least one fruit to mature so we can solve the mystery. This is the furthest along.

I put it into the PictureThis app which is spookily accurate, and it says summer squash.

I don’t know what magic it uses, but it’s accurately identified plants just from a seedling that looks to me exactly like every other seedling.

I like summer squash! That would be really weird though, I’ve never planted summer squash or zucchini in the 10+ years we’ve lived here. Squirrels must be stealing from the neighbors

Compost? We’ve had a few things come up that way in the past.
