Neighbour planted tomatoes, peppers and cosmos in a new bed. In less than a
week everything has died. There appears to be some accelerated growth, such
as occurs with herbicides, but there have been no chemicals used anywhere in
or near the yard. Could toxic chemicals from a brand new plastic hose have
leached into the water that wa used on the plants? (Husband says no, wife
says water appeared milky). Anyone experienced anything like this? Weather
has been fine -- no frost, not particularly hot, and sufficient rainfall.

Thanks,
