Chicago Ash, THANKS for the awesome how-tos!
Also, merrymath, I will keep that recipe in mind for next time.

Unfortunately, it seems like SVBs, as I did seem some sawdust at the base of the plants.

I'm interested in the chlorinated water theory. Before my water barrels were done, I was using city water that is chlorinated for watering. It didn't seem to affect any of my other crops though. Thankfully, I have now built a 100 gallon system and so will never have to use city water again.

In the end, I pulled up the two affected plants and tossed them. Will be planting fall crops in their containers soon. Thanks everyone for the advice! Glad to know I wasn't the only one affected. Also, great advice for next season, so I can keep a close eye and nip problems in the bud.
