That is my plan for the cukes and Tsquash that I started today. I am going to put one edge at the side of the garden, and put a few containers on the opposite side and see what happens. This is the year of experimenting for me. If I aint happy with the results, I may use the space for fruit trees next year. I only have 4 small areas of sun on 2/3acres, so I have to choose carefully what to grow and where.
How are your ghost peppers doing?
I have the advantage of having mine in pots on the deck and that helps for them not to be close to regular dirt where those killers are more likely to be. I do have cucumbers in pots and they will be across the deck from the T squash so if something gets on them, they won't be close to my T squash.
I have Diatomaceous Earth and an aspirator to use to blow it on the base of the squash plants and the stalk and leaves, wetting them first so the earth will stick. Once they are in their permanent pots, I'll do that to try to ward off any flying insect that could get on them. Since they are in pots on the deck, insects in the ground can't get to them but the moths could fly there.
I want you to experience the T squash as they are so special.
Only 2 germinated and both damped off. I went back to the nursery, but they were all out of the seeds. I guess that I'll have to be happy with habanero, jalapeno, thai, poblano, and banana pepper ;)
