we've got two very large pink banana squash but the problem is the plants have powdery mildew....practically overnight all the trailing leafs were affected....

I believe and I hope that the squash will continue to grow a week or two more....because I don't think I can do any thing about the mildew now....

next season I hope to find some mildew resistant varieties to plant.

I decided to try some fall crops this year, in the north country....I had to order beet seeds which they always say can tolerate cooler temps....we'll see....

Now might be a better time to plant them. Whenever I plant them in spring, they get attacked by leaf minersand I get disgusted and yank them out.
