    I'm not the most squeamish person, but I do find squash bugs so gross. I couldn't crush them with my fingers. Should I dust the bugs directly, or is there something I can spray directly on them? I use silicone tipped tongs to pull tomato horn worms off tomato stems, then drop them in a cup of soapy water. Can't use tongs on squash bugs. I once saw a bird trying to wrestle a horn worm off of a stem. One of those rare nature moments. I even saw a hornworm with wasp larvae all over it. I had to try hard not to pass out while taking a picture. It was the worst hornworm infestation I'd ever had, by far. Is it my imagination, or is pest pressure a lot worse than it used to be? When people who don't garden shop for veggies, they sure aren't thinking squash bugs and hornworms and all the rest of it!

You can use it as a dust and as a foliage spray. And, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that Kaolin also cools plants down! The clay is recommended as the brand Surround WP. Hope this is helpful

    This close-up view of exactly where to put the dust, and then saturating the area the next morning, is extremely helpful. Last time I tried to grow yellow squash and zucchini, almost all of the fruit turned to mush on one end long before they were mature. Is that blossom end rot? What might the cause have been? Would the bugs have had anything to do with that? It was the first time this happened to my squash and zucchini plants. Thanks Gary, for all the info and the great way you show us what you're explaining. Good health and happiness to you and yours, always!

      Or, some kind of worm bores a hole and eats out the inside of the squash. I'm in the insect capital of the world it seems. (Florida) Spider mites, flea beetles, aphids, squash bugs, pickle worm, you name it we have it in my garden. 😟🙁🙁🙁🙁

    Yes it's gross to have to squish them. I've always been squeamish about that but this season being my third one, I find that I'm less so. Maybe it's because I'm beginning to realize that's what I need to do to keep them under control. So thick gloves on and hunting here I go! Lol
    Question though. I find that there are less bees visiting my yard this year than previously. I'm not sure why. Have you notice any difference in pollinator population in your garden?

    Very informative and helpful. This may be a dumb question, but are there any very common garden pests we shouldn't touch because they will sting, etc? My grandparents always spoke of a "blister bug" and I don't remember much about them except they looked similar to a lightning bug (firefly) without the ability to glow. I always assumed they would cause blisters if you got a secretion on you or something. I am growing a spacemaster bush cucumber and saw a fuzzy caterpillar-like something on it the other day. I almost touched it thinking it was a cucumber because it looked so much like a little one and then I drew back because it almost resembled what we call in the south a "packsaddle." Now, I have never been stung by one of those, but I hear they pack a punch and I'd rather not find out first hand. Just wondering.

      Save it till this September and plant it then. I have done this 2 years now and I love growing garlic. By planting in September, you never have to worry about weeding or bugs. I never have to water them because they don’t dry out. I do carrots and onions also. I have mine in big grow bags and they stay pretty dormant until February and March, (in Maryland), and as soon as we get past the frost, they take off for the sky. I’m getting ready to harvest mine in a week or two and will save some for planting this September.
      You can also get garlic at the grocery store ( I get organic), and plant it, although I would say that if Gary has it, order it from him. Good luck!👍🏻🍀

    I feel fortunate to not have a ton of insect pressure for some reason. If you can get away with using nothing, that's the way to go. I'm sure not everybody HAS to use dust. It's probably much different down south though.

    Wouldn't you be putting new squash plants in danger of infestation if you plant them in the same place as old plants ?

      @THERUSTEDGARDEN  2 роки тому

      Not really. They show up everywhere. Its not the soil. You can certainly put them elsewhere and but they eventually show up.

    My best tactic for squash is to buy it at the Farmers Market! It just wasn't worth dealing with the squash bugs and the vine borers.
