Any squash borers?
Yup...I laced a 75ft soaker hose thru each row of my tomato plants when I caged them & I have 1 between my squash & zucchini, 1 between my beans & another between my pepper rows...
Checked for borers this a.m. found 1 zucch with a borer hole in the stalk base, pulled it up. I spray the bases of the squash & zucch weekly with a commercial insecticidal soap but the 15 minutes of rain I've been having every other day has decreased it's effectivness.
I've been getting squash & zucch's for a week now so I'll prolly get another 3 weeks worth before they are spent. Fingers crossed I can keep the borers at bay until then...
