This is one of my squash plants. Below it is the standard 3ft measure that you've seen before to give you some scale.

They get big. This one was put in the tobacco row, when I lost a tobacco plant early. You can see it's crowding out it's neighbor, one of the smaller tobacco plants. ;)

FWIW it’s worth I’ve pruned really overzealous squash plants before. Done judiciously they don’t really miss those couple leaves and I didn’t notice a difference in output either.

Just my 2c.

Your squash plant is a pussy compared to mine.

My squash is crowding out the green onion... no problem! Had to spray the BT spray today because we are getting gamed by cabbage worms. Pulled up the mesclun lettuce because it was the main attraction. I planted marigold through out but the worms are there... feasting on everything. Most worried about the green beans... hope what we sprayed today will be effective.
