I posted earlier about getting only one banana squash from my hydroponicly
growing plant. It was delicious.

I cut away old leaves, adjusted pH, measured electrical conductivity added
nutrient and I am getting new growth. The leaves are not nearly as big as
they were before. Two new squash have set, and I hope the grow up before the
end of the season. Some others have started to form, but I do not think they
will actually grow.

I posted earlier about zuccini stem borers attacking my plants.
I was getting a great yeild of about 2 large fruits a week from each plant. I
was swimming in zuccini!
After the infestation problem was solved, about 5 of my 20 plants survived the
bugs and they have regrown to fruiting size. I am now have alot more room in my
garden and I'm picking zuccinis again! Yay!!!

We also had an infestation of the borers (eeew gross and disgusting).
My DH cut them out of the stems (there were a LOT of them--- huge too)
and then did the burying trick. We did not lose one of our three
plants (Ravens) and they are continuing to produce nicely. Oh, he also
treated them once with something (not Sevin).
