Dear Carlsons:
It is truly amazing that your pumpkin continues to grow without a
stump!
To be more specific about my problem, first the leaves on the vine
wilted slightly in the heat of the day. I have seen this before, so,
initially it didn't worry me. Then, beginning with the leaves closest to
the stump, the edges turned brown, then yellow and the entire leaf
shriveled up to brown. Then this continued down the rest of the stem.
The same thing has happened to one of my blue hubbard squash plants.
What is strange is that both plants are surrounded by other healthy and
vigorous vines. I don't know what it could be other than what Pumpkin
Flower suggests, bad luck. Again, there is no evidence of borers or
squash bugs.
Any advice would be appreciated.
-Stacey
