July 23, 2017Q.Spaghetti Squash buds and fruit
My spaghetti squash plants are beautiful, nice big leaves and lots of blossoms. When the baby squash forms, it grows to about an inch or so and then suddenly dies off. It looks very healthy as it forms but usually as it gets past that one inch size, in the next 24 hours it's rotting at the open end, still looks OK on the stem end. By the next day, it's obvious that this one isn't going to make it. We have been having torrential downpours almost weekly...I haven't watered the plants much extra. I know a lot of the rainfall is sheltered from the soil by these huge leaves. Is this more likely to be too much water or not enough?

August 20, 2017Q.Spaghetti squash
It's more than halfway through August and my spaghetti plant is, I think, showing signs of bacterial wilt, should I harvest my fruit?

August 21, 2017A.If your vines are completely or almost completely wilted, then yes, I would recommend harvesting now since the squash won't grow any bigger. If only a few leaves are wilted you can continue letting the squash grow, just in case it's not bacterial wilt. But remain vigilant since you may have to harvest in a hurry if the plant dies.
The following article says infected plants die in 7-10 days so you'll soon know the answer:

Floresville, txQ.I need help identifing this plant
So I planted a spaghetti squash seed and I thought that's what was growing until my mother in law came to visit and pointed out that the leaves didn't look like spaghetti squash leaves. So now Im growing a plant and have no idea what it is. I would love to find out if anyone knows what it could be.

January 9, 2018A.Looks like cilantro. Does it have a smell if a leaf is crushed? It also appears to be woefully deficient in light. Winter sun can't support plants that require full sun; supplemental lighting is needed.

I have several spaghetti squash vegetables looking good on the vine but, several others seem to be wilting to their demise. Why might some die while others are doing great?

June 19, 2019A.This is completely normal. These will come in a wide range of colors and shapes if you plant the seeds yourself. There is nothing to be concerned with, and they are completely edible.
