This happens to at least one of my zuke plants every year. Usually the one will start out normal, then lose its large leaves and get these small crinkly ones. This time the two started out that way. Is this some kid of mite infection? Would soapy water help? Should I pull them out to keep any infestation from spreading? Or leave them in, so the infectors will stay with the one plant? Any words of wisdom? sometimes in seeds there will be a few of a slightly different strain to help with cross- pollination. i don't know if this is the case with yours or not. this is what comes to mind. songbird I have noticed that. I think one turned out to be a black zucchini last year. Still tasted good. So maybe it is just a weird hybrid / cross breed. Hmmm. I still have a few seedlings I haven't planted. I am thinking of pulling the weird ones out. How would I rule out mites? |
