I had posted earlier about my pumpkin problems. All the research I have done leads to cucurbit yellow vine disease. it is transmitted by squash bugs which I had some early on but took care of them. I live in Minnesota 45min West of the Minneapolis wondering if anyone else has gotten this disease and how they treated it. everything I'm finding is there isn't a cure.

Sounds like yellow vine disease, it's caused from insects(squash bus aND cuc beatles). There is no cure for it. Using a systemic pesticide and a contact pesticide will help reduce your chances of getting it. Start a spray program not long after plants go into the ground.

Something like that got one of my field pumpkins, killed it in 2 days. I found squash bug eggs, cuke beetles and several live squash bugs while pulling it. I hit the bugs with series of 4 insecticides, contact and systemic and none of the other plants got it.
