This summer I had severe problem with cucumber beetles. In past years I
have used Sevin in powder form with great results. This year I sprayed
liquid Sevin, at whatever rate it was labeled for for normal pumpkins. The
next morning I had three 1061 x 1006 plants and one 1061 plant looking like
they had a immediate case of bacterial wilt. OVERNIGHT!!! I almost cried.
I felt worse than everyone who is complaining about having their pumpkins
stolen. What a disappointment to see these huge plants killed in one day.
Are these plants more susceptable to Sevin than others? Thanks, Mark Seest

I've used 50wp Seven with no adverse effects. Only spray when drying
conditions are good.
