This is what the older leaves look like when they start to pick up the yellow to brownish color. Again there is just a handful of leaves around the stump looking like this and it is spreading very slowly. The white on this leaf is the milk I sprayed earlier in the week. There is also a little bit of powdery mildew on the plant and I found 4-5 leaves yesterday with squash bug larvae on them, but again normal late summer stuff that would not cause a pumpkin to abort at nearly 900 lbs.
