Do you prune squash?
I've read mixed views of this online. Some say yes, it's fine. Others say no because you'll take off too many female flowers that grow at the end of the vines, or introduce disease.
I usually just guide long vines to an empty part of the yard, but this year my squash area has gone absolutely nuts. We've had crazy rain, and they apparently love it. I have about 6 varieties - yellow summer, zucchini, pink banana heirloom (I think), spaghetti, butternut, mini sugar pumpkins.
I could trail them away and then trellis them up the back fence - about 15' away, but I'm not sure how well that would work anyway.
Thoughts?
