Usually Downy Mildew is the one we have to worry about more here in Virginia, especially when it's wet, we had it by July (maybe earlier, don't have the trial notes handy just now). We didn't see Powdery Mildew show up til a few weeks ago... just looked again at the squash patch, the Landrace Moschata has probably about half its vines died back -- that's earlier than the other moschatas in the patch -- but since it did set its fruits so impressively early, it looks to be a nice harvest!
