Butternut Squash Plant Turning Yellow

Question

I planted a Butternut Squash plant in a 10″ terracotta pot. It has grown quickly, and even has blooms. But now the leaves are turning yellow? Is it a watering issue or a fertilizer issue?

Answer 1

It could be a watering issue: too much or too little. They do need more water since they are in a container. This article should help:
