Here is an update on how these squash plants are doing following some exploratory surgery.
Here is a photo taken two days after a vine borer was removed. The plant looks healthy and was productive.
This plant, recovering at the London Ferrell, had the added benefit of compost. This is day four of its recovery.
These two plants had the surgery four days ago, and were hilled up with compost. I suspect that the plant on the left still has a borer.
Hopefully this intervention will allow us to finish the season and share more of these Patty Pan squash. Do feel free to visit our gardens (Sayre, Florence Crittendon, London Ferrell) and check up on these brave plants.
