I Can't Grow Squash

11 years ago

I live in northern SC. I planted both winter and summer squash this year, and they all started out great. But soon all the squash was attacked by powdery mildew that I cannot control. I tried milk, neem oil, and even picked infected leaves. It just keeps spreading. Vine borers killed the spaghetti squash and butternut squash plant. Squash bugs and squash beetles are all over the crookneck and the zucchini. I've also seen cucumber beetles on them. Vine borers have already killed a few zucchini plants. Of the crooknecks that have set fruit, the bugs eat holes through the tiny little squash. I think I'm giving up for this year. What should I do to prevent this next year?!
