Yellow string type nuisance plant problem
The past two years there has been a yellow string type plant that wraps
around and around and through and around my cucumber plants kinda strangling the cucumber plant. Does anyone know what this is and how to control it? It is really a nuisance. There are no leaves on it. It is a real thin string type plant. |
More orange really. Parasite, Dodder. Just pull it off.

On a recent trip near San Diego, my son spotted some in the wild. We thought it was a fungus. It looked a lot like orange monofilament line might look. It is a full fledged angiosperm just like most seed crops we grow--except that it is parasitic. Bill |
