The Ceja pumpkin, a.k.a. Josie, has stopped growing and will be the next yellow vine disease victim. The consolation prize is that my salt-water treatment of the oozing vine seems to have worked, it has dried up nicely and stayed firm. I'm not sure if the rotting vine was caused by the YVD or not - the Hester's vine still looks great with no rot whatsoever. It doesn't really matter, it's just another reason to go forward with my floating row cover plans for next year. As bad as it's been in the pumpkin patch, our summer squash patch will soon be completely empty - 11 plants up and 11 down.
