I am picking off the worst leaves--and now have bare stems on the bottom--and soon, 1/2 way up. I know leaves have a function to keep the fruits a bit shaded from direct sun. My plants get sun along the tops--but no sun directly from the front of the bed. I sprayed them all with (old) NEEM a while back--when we all had this discussion of spraying in hyot weather going on. I could spray again, now--but my Neem is just as old as some of you others have said. Besides--mine is kept in the shed during the growing season. HOT! HOT!! HOT! I will p/u a Bayer 3-in-1 bottle at HD. WOW! That costs almost $20! OK! Will go out and take a picture for you. 1-- the Parks Whopper that is on the corner--this was taken a week ago 2--the same plant--now pretty charred/bare looking on the bottom half 3--Both plants (same variety)--the one on left seems OK--the one on the right not so. The fruit keep growing, though. None are ripening yet... 4--My pickling Cukes growing wild. There are about 10 plants total. Have picked 6 already. |
