Season started out with plants never really growing well. Color was never good, and overall just not what I have had in the past. I blamed weather, but in the back of my mind, I knew something wasnt right.I send soil test to A&L, and did tissue tests at NCSU hopeing for a answer. All test came back with good reports, even better than last years reports. Then later in the year, the leaves started to show signs of diease. Then the whole plant, and then the melons. So in a effort to keep from spreading I pulled all plants, cleaned beds, and have planted mustard. But in the end I still am unsure of the reason. I believe the manure I brought in this year was not composted engough and may have carried a diease in it, but at this point it's all guessing. Same spray program, and fertilize schedule as last year, but way different results.
