I am new to growing squash. This summer, I am trying to grow a banana squash
in a hydroponic grower. I had trouble getting the seeds to germinate. I
attribute that to poor storage by the vendor. Anyway one started and is
growing very vigorously.

It appears to me that one of the embryonic squashes was able to suck up all
the energy made available. That one grew enormously while the others stayed
small. Is that a property of banana squash?

I picked it at about 2 to 2.5 pounds. In part, it is to see if the other
squash will grow faster if there is no hog squash on the plant. By the way,
I had no idea that squash could be that good.

Another problem I am having is yellowing of the leaf edges. Am I better of
removing those leaves? That also will let more light get to the remaining
leaves.

The other thing I am going to try is to reduce the time the nutrient
circulates.
