There was a bit of a sad moment in the garden today when I saw that the monstrous 3' tall summer squash vines had toppled over, causing some severe splitting at their bases. The splits go anywhere from 1/3 to 2/3 of the way through the vines and will be easy points of entry for any interested bugs. The plants are still alive and seemingly doing well, but in the future I think I'll put tomato cages around the seedlings when growing in this sort of environment. (I'll probably end up with summer squash plants that look like Christmas trees.)

It's interesting how the beets are growing their bulbs above ground, kohlrabi-like, as an adaptation to growing in rocks:
