Topsfield, Ma.

Been growing LG's 3 years w/o any observed pest or disease issues! My punkins have suffered badly from bugs and unseen uglies I'm still trying to understand...good luck! Duff

All three are bothered by the same pests..stink bug, squash bug, cuke beetles, all three spread disease. Take your pick and enjoy the journey.

my vote is long gourds!!! watermellons get cucumber beetles easily but long gourds arent really affected by anything (at my house, i cant speak for others!).
