I really wanted to grow pumpkins and winter squash and I thought I had missed my opportunity but this thread helped inspire me! Stephanietx also provided some links on another thread to a Harris county vegetable planner that came in handy, too. It turned out I had some time after all. I built a bed over the 4th of July weekend and planted some acorn squash (bush) and buttercup squash.

I also had a packet of a "variety mix" of winter squash seeds including two pumpkin seeds (which I will reckon they are due to their size.)
I haven't completed the bed yet but I started them in small pots about 10 days ago.

The two in the foreground are pumpkins I believe, and the other seedling in the lighter green pot is "mystery squash" so we'll see.
