I was initially concerned it was aphids, since I&#39;d had something of an infestation on my zucchini. I could never really see signs of them, though. <br /><br />There also seemed to be some difficulty in setting fruit, but I thought perhaps that was due more to a pollination problem, i.e. not enough pollinators being able to get to the flowers. Perhaps it, too, was due to the weakened state of the roots.Joan Lambert Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03115423496781398997[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6670240581789114113.post-86885825300184423282010-10-08T13:06:05.515-04:002010-10-08T13:06:05.515-04:00Interesting!
