Ok, I have got to respond to this post too!. Each year, nobody really knows just how things are going to turn out until the end when it's over. I thought this might be a pretty good year for squash and planted a whole field of them, but then it rained all summer and they didn't amount to much, so I'm out my seed and fertilizer money, plus my time and fuel, but oh well, atleast I tried and what happened was out of my hands and if I hadn't planted, well then I would have been wondering how it would have turned out. I did learn a few things, as this was my first year of trying to grow squash in a field instead of a manure pile and this next year I can use what I learned to do better. Secondly, what use is unused land?, and third, this could have been the most wonderful year in history, but that doesn't stop unexpected things such as pests from destroying my crop, like the invasion of army worms in corn just a couple of years ago that wiped out some peoples corn crops or even natural disasters such as high winds from flattening my crop. There is always a risk in raising crops, and you won't get ahead if you don't try. I had people asking me a month ago if I thought my squash was going to do alright, and I told them I don't know at this point, and I'd be able to tell them when it was over, but now with just a couple months left of the growing season and the plants aren't doing so great, I'm afraid I pretty much know.
