    I’ve got some Blue Hubbard squash seeds that for some reason I’ve never planted. I’m definitely going to put some in the ground next year. Yours are gorgeous.❤

      Thank you! I didn’t know how massive they would be. I have only 3 mounds. It is incredible! You’ve got to try them! ❤️

    Squash vine borers are my nemesis! I check the leaves on my plants twice a day for eggs and kill any adults or nymphs that I can see. I have about 10 plants and have been destroying one or two clutches of eggs and one or two adults every day, but haven't seen any nymphs so far, so hopefully it's under control (at least so far). Thank you for the information about the BT as I've never heard of it. Will definitely try it if I see any damage to the stems!

      Yes, please do! Everyone’s squash around here has puttered out and succumbed to the vine borers. The Bt really did work on these plants. I lost one, but that was it. I would highly highly recommend! 😊

      @@harmonhomestead7434 I'm about to pick my first zucchini tomorrow - so excited (it doesn't take much, apparently)! Destroyed two clutches of eggs today and two adult bugs. Hitting up Tractor Supply tomorrow too, to see if they have the BT so I'll have it on hand if needed. Thanks again!

    the vine borers got all my pumpkins and butternut squash , I mounded up the dirt around my zucchini and they started growing again after the borers got them

      I was replying to your other comment but it went away 🤣. I’ve mounded with no success before, but can try again. Have you used Bt injections?
