How is your soil drainage? If it is too wet it could cause problems. I had root rot problems until I dug some drainage ditches and raised the patches up to drain out the excess. That is something to look at after this season. For now maybe a good fungicide would help.

Vines may become a little softer in the heat of the day. 100 degrees seems to do this...Is being soft your only concern or is there a color change as well?

Jason I have color changes as well. I cleaned the ares around the stem with bleach and alowed then to dry. The outer edges look like dry corn stalks although the stem seems more firmer. I swear the heat and humidity have really hurt a lot of growers.
