Hi All -
My AG vines have been vigorous and green since early July and I have
three contenders (Nestor, Yolanda Vega & Norbert) growing on 3 separate
vines. On Saturday morning I saw to my horror that the leaves on
Yolanda's vine were shriveling. Yolanda's about 80 lbs, but seems to be
more orange in color that my other two pumpkins. I have thoroughly
checked the vine for borers and squash bugs and see none. I have been
making sure that the vines have been receiving at least an inch of water
a week and have been fertilizing w/ Miracle Gro every other week. Could
it be that the vine is just done making a pumpkin or do I have some
horrible, cruel pest? Any advice?
Thanks!
