In a few moments I will go and pull the last squash plant out. It has vine borers. I hadn't noticed earlier. There were wilting little squash about 2 inches long and shriveled up like prunes. Still the right color, but obviously not getting what it needed. Then I noticed the undersides of half a dozen leaves crawling with little baby bugs, what I had thought were mites were actually hatchlings of those vicious hateful bugs. I doused them good with the organic insecticide that has gotten me through the summer, squishing the 1 adult sized bug that I saw. The little ones writhed in pain. At the very base of the stalk I saw the signs of borers. I know I have to do it or I will just prolong the pain. So in a few moments out it goes. I had so much hope in it, though.
