Can anyone tell me what the symptoms are of overwatering? Some of my leaves are browning only on the edges and the leaves closest to where the main vine was planted are dying all together. My husband thinks I am watering them to much. Is this so?

I think more waterings with less amounts and the continued misting is
essential during extreme heat, but here you need young fruits that can go
on a terror.
