Hello All,

I am looking for some ideas for managing pests of pumpkin and winter squash
in Virginia in an organic way. I am particularly interested in anybody's
experience with corn gluten meal vs straw for weed suppression and also
methods of controling cucumber beetles, squash vine borers, and powdery
mildew. Any information will be appreciated. Thanks for your time.
