Also, all the squash was free seeds. I still have a ton! I kept the big ones from the produce we ate while my mom gave me the zucchini. I'm also keeping seeds from the plants I grow this year for next year to keep the cycle going. I think I'm going to start them inside around April next year. I may even experiment with starting a couple in January and April.
I do have neem oil I use in a mixture but I recently heard neem oil is showing signs of being bad for bees. It takes a few generations to show up. I need to do more research because it was one of those passing videos on Instagram. They suggest spraying in the evening after the bees are gone so that's what I've been doing. Between the bee safe and the neem oil/soap mixture. It has been doing fairly well.
