At the end of last week i gave three of my plants a drenching with fish/seaweed.Now all three plants have yellowing leaves from the stump out about 7ft on the main.they are a light yellow green mix with some brown on the outer 1/2" of the leaves.I also watered them good about 1ft out from the stump on friday and then we got 4" of rain that night? Is it to much water,or to strong of a dose of fish/seeweed? I only put about an ounce to 3 gallons.I have my two best pumpkins on these plants ..Any thoughts on what i did wrong???? THANKS BOB

Too much water. They will green up after the soil drains a little. You should be getting about 1" or 640 gallons per 1000 square feet per week.

Check for vine borers the leaves turn yellow first.... You need tobinspect the vine closely.
