Lack of Connection

If you look closely, the main vine is no longer attached to the main crown on the indoor 1989.5 dmg Daletas ’17. This was after testing the connection which resulted in an easy detachment, which simply confirms what I knew was true already… Advanced Vine Rot.

The tan/orange coloration is consistent with Fusarium fungus for which there is really no great cure for, so my goal is to try and minimize the negative impact on the plant and pumpkin for the rest of the season.
