Zucchini and yellow crooknecks don't really have vines.
They're more bush shaped.
oh! you're planting bush squash... that's different, then.
yes, it's *much* harder to find & control borers & they're
much more likely to destroy the entire plant. that's why i
don't grow bush type squash. both zuchinni & yellow crookneck
should be available as vining type, but you may need to look
for heirloom seeds.
Thanks. We may look into it for next year.
