I've just joined. I'm building an atrium on the west side of our house, and am doing experiments with fabric grow bags. I put some yellow squash seed in soil and have been caring for it. I have dozens of blooms and at least a dozen small squash, but they aren't getting big. They are a couple of inches long, and more blooms. I'm thinking the root system in the 3 gallon bag is too small. Anyone have experience with these bags? Anyone have any ideas?

Could be right. I tried squash in a container with out even the success you have had. I got flowers but never fruit. However these were seeds saved from something last fall so there may have been something wrong with the seeds as well...

I should pick some of them and leave the biggest, to see if it will grow big. I can eat them like popcorn, lol.
