Summer & Winter squash problems

baliset
15 years ago

I had some problems growing squash last year, and I was hoping someone could give me some pointers.

Summer squash: I grew the standard zuchs and yellow croockneck. Plants started out beautiful and produced well, but within a month had powdery mildew and they all died about a month later. We have very humid summers, any tips to keep this at bay?

Winter squash: I did some Guatamalan Blue Banana, Triamble, and something else I can't remember. Every vine did beautifully for a while, and then started to die from the root end very slowly towards the growing tip. I had never grown winter squash before this and I have no idea what the culprit was. Help?

Thank you!

Jody
