So I planted winter squash and didn't realize that they take up waaay more space than summer squash. Got trellis, all was perking along with the vines growing up the trellises. The past few weeks, though, the leaves started looking pale - chlorosis - so I gave them some liquid iron and fish emulsion. Now about half the vines now look awesome and the other half never greened back up and have started to wither and die. I traced back the vines and have found that both living and withering vines are coming off the same plant! And I saw a bug that is gray and about a half inch long. Is that a squash vine borer?
What can I do?? The squash on the withering vines are starting to wither themselves even though they seem nearly ripe.
