I have 13 spaghetti squash but they are starting to rot on the flower end. They range in size 5 in-10 in in length. I live in central oregon. I had about 16 squash but 3 of them have gotten rotten on the end of them.

I hope some one can give me some ideas how to stop this. We love the spaghetti squash.

I have read about something called blossom end rot, which seems to have something to do with inconsistent watering-letting the plant dry out too long, then watering too much, etc. I think. This post is a week old, you have probably found your answer already, hopefully.
Good Luck,
Julia
