After a fairly uneventful week, just a few bugs here and there, I found this today. I've found some squash bugs and some cucumber beetles, but have them under control. Today I saw these shriveled leaves and found the yellow stem which was split open and full of stinky yellow-orange stuff. I ran to the house, amputated the nasty stem and sprayed it heavily with strong bleach/water solution. I noticed several other stems on other plants now have the same yellow-looking stems. If anyone can offer me some help, I'd appreciate it. Too much water, not enough water, Sevin damage?, bugs, mildew, or what??? Thank you. And did I do the right thing by amputating?
