My garden is infected. I'm pretty sure I've got powdery mildew on the butternut squash leaves, probably cause by overhead watering since I'm too cheap to buy a soaker hose system. I cut off the infected plants which hopefully solved the problem. If it continues to spread I'll have to take some serious action.
Note the white splotches...
I also pulled out a few potato plants because of suspected potato blight. Apparently this is a very, very bad year for potato and tomato blight. I'm not taking any chances - at the first sign of possible infection I'm ripping those suckers out of the ground.
On the upside, I did a little digging around and found a whole pile of potatoes! Hooray!!
I also spotted some zucchini growing the other day...
