There is mostly good news on the Ceja plant. After major stump-removal surgery last Monday, the plant's wilting gradually went away over the next 3 days. It was cloudy with some rain on Wednesday, which helped. I didn't uncover the amputation site to look at it until Thursday, and by then it was oozing again along with another spot where I had cut a leaf off even closer to where the pumpkin is. It wasn't too bad and I didn't want to cut off any more plant, so I just tried to squeeze and scrape out with my finger as much of the mushy stuff as I could. I decided to try placing a paper towel soaked in salt water up against the site to try to draw out more of the bacteria, and then I recovered it for a few days.
