No idee. Squash are like tomatoes. The come up and grow, looking for something to kill them.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

Powdery mildew. It will eventually take the plant down and there's nothing to do about it...except plant a better variety of squash next time. Multipik is bad about getting it. There's about a thousand different yella squash varieties out there, pick another with some PM resistance and plant again. I plant squash all throughout the summer, it'll make a crop in 30 days flat in the dead of summer if you can keep it watered. I've had the same issue with a couple of my squash plants, powdery mildew that is. I mixed up a gallon of water with 1 TBSP baking soda and 1/2 TSP of dawn dish soap, put it in a spray bottle and have sprayed mine down good daily with it along with pulling off leaves that were turning yellow from it. They may still die but it seems like it's having a postive effect. I don't see hardly any of the little white mildew spots on my plants anymore. It's worth a shot if they're gonna die unattended to anyway.

Hell squash is like kudzu. I can't kill the damn things. If I could live off squash I'd be golden.
My corn dries up and fizzles out. My tomatoes get end rot. My peas get hammered by the deer. My figs get eaten up by birds and Bees. My Peaches fall victim to 90 different varieties of blight.
But the damn squash will grow on a hot sidewalk.
My opinions and comments are my own. They do not reflect the position or political opinions of Aldeer or any of the Aldeer administration.

If you cant grow squash, you need to find another hobby. Ya I've never had squash or zucchini do bad here...knock on wood
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
