Blossom Rot
Has anyone here had any luck dealing with blossom rot in yellow squash?
This is my first year gardening in a greenhouse, and my squash has gone crazy! It is huge and has almost taken over the whole greenhouse. I have tons of blossoms, and squash growing, and then when they get about 2-3" long, they sometimes develop blossom rot. I researched this disease, and it seems that too much watering, or not enough water can cause this, and also that not enough calcium in the soil can cause blossom rot.
So, I stopped watering for a day or two... that didn't help. So then I watered again... that didn't help, and then I applied Epsom salt 1 Tbsp per gallon to the plants... that didn't help.
Not ALL the squash have it, just a few here and there.
