Wilted Pumpkin
A pumpkin plant on my allotment is ailing and I wonder if anyone knows what
might be wrong with it? The plant looks like it needs watering, the leaves are all limp and wilted. However, the soil is quite damp due to it having rained for the past few days, and also I've kept it well-watered. Can anyone advise? Thanks. |

Limp leaves are usually caused by lack of water getting to them - if there's plenty of water around, you need to look at the delivery system. Have slugs chewed through the stem? Have the roots rotted? -- Kay |
