Agree. Squash bugs could not cause uniform all over yellowing/ fading like that.
They would eat holes in leaves and cause localized yellowing. Sometimes they can cause a wilt disease, but then along with yellowing, your leaves would be very wilted.
examples of squash bug damage:

What you have is nutrient deficiency. The fish emulsion you used to "condition" the hay was very much less concentrated than the fertilizer described in the article I linked. So your hay was much less conditioned, I.e. less broken down, less nitrogen and other nutrients released.
