More Food
Those awful plants were fed another sixty ounces of that milky mixture this afternoon. Honestly, they should be so ashamed of themselves, faking powdery mildew just to net extra feedings. It's alarming how much good it's doing them too. The watermelon will be sneaking through the fence by tomorrow, I expect, and then the poor dogs next door are doomed the next time they take a walk.

A Third Serving of Milk
Those plants got fed fifty ounces of that milky mix this afternoon. Oh, I shudder to think of how much growth that will encourage! The watermelon seems to grow another foot every time it's fed, and it's currently growing right towards the neighbors' dwelling. Those poor neighbors. What will become of them if the rabbits start feeding the plants daily? Really, even if they did have powdery mildew, I'm sure it doesn't call for this much applying of the milky stuff.

Sixty Ounces
Those horrible plants just had a full sixty ounces of that milk mixture! Oh, our neighbors are doomed, this entire area is doomed! Honestly, what in the world were those rabbits thinking, feeding them so much? Even if those plants actually had powdery mildew, which they DIDN'T, that doesn't require dumping so much of that milky stuff on them, especially since it's known for causing growth. The zucchini are already waist high on the human. Can you imagine what might happen if those blasted things grew any more?

More Milk
The rabbits fed those horrible plants another thirty ounce serving of that milk mixture they seem to love so. And to make matters even worse, it started raining while they were spraying everything, so the house is filled with the odor of wet rabbits! They have another watering jug full of the milk mixture waiting on the counter for the rain to stop too, so they can hop out and finish up the job. Those plants will have had sixty ounces by the time it's over and done with for the night. I shudder to think of how much their growth will be encouraged by that much food. And as for the milk mixture helping the powdery mildew issue, well, those plants were faking that!

Powdery Mildew Part 2
The rabbits checked the plants a bit ago, and they're looking much better with limited signs of the powdery mildew. Of course, the bunnies are taking this as a sign that the treatment with the milk mixture is working, and they're considering mixing up more to apply tonight or tomorrow. Honestly, they look better because the rain washed most of the talcum powder off! Those plants were faking, and now the rabbits are going along with them and giving them exactly what they want, more milk and more growth encouragement. Really, don't these bunnies ever use their little bunny brains?

Powdery Mildew
The squash and pumpkins are up to something, and I'm sure the watermelon are in on it too. The bunnies found a whitish, powdery substance on the squash and pumpkin leaves today, and they suspect that they're dealing with an infestation of powdery mildew. Anyway, they were told a treatment for this was to cover the plants with a milk and water mixture, so of course they hopped right away to mix it up and rush it out. Need I remind anyone here that this milk mixture is the same thing as food for those delinquent plants? They have faked powdery mildew just to get fed more often. I just know it! I swear I heard the bathroom window opening last night, and talcum powder is missing. Those delinquent plants probably sprinkled it on to fake mildew and get more food! The bunnies fed them a big, thirty ounce serving of supper! We're doomed! Doomed, I tell you! Doomed!
