Re: Disease?


Or it may be Mozaic Wilt (caused by too much overhead watering, or watering at the wrong parts of the day, ie: too late at night, the plants are not dampening off).  If it is Mozaic Wilt it can spread to everything and kill all that it infects.  Use a fungicide type spray and this should help.

The leaf photos of leaf burn & curl show it as part of the Bacterial Wilt cycle if so that's what it may be.  The look of the Green & Yellow leaves it doesn't show though in their listing.  I have never seen it come on this way, I usually see rapid wilt & collapse of the plant.  I've also never had an AG with wilt.
