Re: Do y'all think this tip will work for our Pumpkins too?


It might, but if you have SVB moths...I would use Triazicide just to be sure....that has proven to be effective.
1 borer in your main vine and you will lose a lot of pounds on that pumpkin...people growing squash for food...aren't that worried. ;-)
I actually keep my MV under remay all season...just to protect the "golden pipeline" and still spray Triazicide!
Good luck.

Has this one been discussed in the past?  Got this tip from the gardening
newsletter from About.com today.

 

Deterring Squash Borers: Sow radish seeds with the squash seeds to prevent
the squash borers.
