I love zucchini!

But can not grow it.

Last year I planted a raised bed vegetable garden. Have always planted tomatoes and cherry tomatoes, but decided to try zucchini.

Last year I got vine borers and that destroyed my zucchini. I believe I got 1 zucchini. The nursery told me to put all my fall leaves in the bed and hopefully that would change the ph of the soil and to rotate them I did that and this years the zucchini and cucumber was destroyed by squash borers. Guess I can't win! This year I kept my Sevin right in the garden and that didn't help and then read soap and water would kill the squash borers. It did kill them but there were so many I couldn't keep up.

Any suggestions for next year?
