stunted crooked neck squash


Question
Gardening in southern oregon for the first time.  Yellow crooked neck squash are only getting about 4 inches long, then turn bright yellow & stop growing.  Planted in raised bed, new well drained soil, watered consistently every day.

Answer
Pat:

I think you may be watering to much and depleting the nutrients in the soil. Try watering every 2-3 days. Put in a good fresh organic fertilizer to give them a boost.

I hope this works for you. Please keep me informed of the results.

Best wishes.
