hi all, no good new's here on the long island update. wind is wreeking
havoc on my patch, if it doesn't stop soon i'm going to go nuts. my
largest plant had it's largest leaf 90% severed from the stem. Should i
(a) cut the whole thing off and protect with a fungicide, (b) leave it
alone and let nature run it's course (c) pray to the pumpkin Gods that
everything will be alright? How will this affect the overall momentum of
my plant? It was doing real well before today.

Scott,
No big deal. If you had a choice, you would prefer to have the leaf but
this is not a leathal blow. If it is hanging by a thread, cut it off and
treat the wound with a little fungicide and it will dry out.
