I planted two zucchini/cucs plants this year - last few years I have battled that squash worm and I have been unable to get the plants off the ground as it were. This year I planted one cucumber and one squash plant and I planted them in big planters instead of the raised garden bed where I had planted in the past. The plants took off!! They looked great. I found 3 cucumbers last week and 2 squash over the weekend. Today, I found holes in the cucs and the squash were rotting on the vine. I HATE gardening!!!! I so wanted cucs and squash, especially squash. Nothing tastes better than squash cooked in a cast iron skillet. most frustrating thing in the world!

As a side, I have 4 tomato plants that are doing well. Two of the plants are now 6 feet tall.....WTH is up with that??? No idea but the maters are doing well.
