I read that the radishes helped repel the squash vine borers--and so far, it seems to work! I'm so thrilled! In fact, it worked so well that when we returned from two weeks of visiting family in Europe, the squash and cucumber vines had taken over the entire garden--it was a blanket of vines. Glad you enjoyed some delicious squash this summer!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09643317297830165273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859873319068539701.post-3512692847094405062012-07-22T20:24:18.482-04:002012-07-22T20:24:18.482-04:00I'm trying to "train" mine -- ha!
