Decided it's better to try to nip it before it gets worse, scraped down the area and lucky it wasn't very deep so hopefully it will heal over. Covered it with Captan after surgery. The original part of this plant is about shot, the leaves are dried and brittle, hopefully the new growth will still add some pounds but I'm not very optimistic at this point. Looking back at last year's records my two largest fruit put on over 200 pounds in September. I don't think that'll happen this year, the plants and fruit this year are older since I started them earlier and they're also bigger, so maybe they are about tapped out. At this point any September gain would be great, I just don't want anything to rot, ooze, weep or collapse before the weigh-off.
